The Landsknecht Sword

Sep 26, 2018 | 41m 43s | tv-pg v,l | CC

Four bladesmiths are floored when they must craft a signature blade from a massive piece of elevator cable. It’s dirty work forging the oily cable into a blade as the smiths battle delaminations and inclusions. After surviving two tough rounds of testing, the final two competitors return home to recreate a sword wielded by some of history’s fiercest soldiers: the Two-Handed Landsknecht Sword. Only one smith can claim the $10,000 prize, and be elevated to the status of Forged in Fire Champion.
