That's really cool man! Guy definitely does some great looking work. See if he can do all of us a favor a kick the guy with the weird mustache right square in the nuts bc he really comes across as a helluva douchebag on that show. The others seem like ok guys but the dude with the pedophile stache needs to go

It's hard to beat a nice Damascus in the looks department.

I enjoy that show, I just wish they'd give them a little more time to churn out a nice product. Knife-making shouldn't be about how fast you can do it.

Yeah, my biggest complaint. I wish it was a 2 hour show, and they showed more of the forging work.

Freaking love this show. The one question I have is do they let them temper the blades before the testing? Surely they have to, but I've never heard them even mention it. Probably because saying "gentlemen, you will now have two hours to let your blades temper" doesn't make for good TV.

This is one of my favorite shows right now. It's amazing what they can do with a chunk of metal in just a few hours. I really liked the raindrop patterns they did. I also wonder how some of these ancient people came up with their blades.

Watching it right now. There was a ton of talent on the forge floor for this episode. Some beautiful finished blades.

I won't spoil it for anyone.

Great episode!
