World-class bladesmiths set to return in Forged In Fire Season 10 Episodes 1 & 2

News: This week, the eagerly awaited Season 10 Episodes 1 & 2 of Forged In Fire will mark the return of world-class bladesmiths. The contestants were chosen at the start of the year, and filming for the tenth season began on July 5, 2023.

The competition spans three rounds, with the third round requiring the bladesmiths to return to their workshops before returning to the studio. This time-consuming process accounts for the four-month gap between filming and airing.

In the previous season, Season 9 of Forged In Fire, a memorable moment unfolded when a father-son duo competed side by side for the first time. Billy Salyers emerged as the victor in Season 7, Episode 9, while his son, Joseph “JoJo” Salyers, secured victory in Season 9, Episode 18.

Show Format and previous highlights

The format of the show typically involves the four bladesmiths forming pairs and being given four days to forge their weapons at their respective homes. The testing and elimination take place at the studio, where the losing pair is eliminated. The top two bladesmiths then compete individually, and only one emerges as the winner in the final round.

The viewership ratings for Season 9 of Forged In Fire displayed fluctuations throughout the season, lacking consistency. The initial ten episodes featured a diverse array of weapons, including Curved Katars, The Sword of Mercy, Ninjato Sword, Serrated Indian Saber, Parang Nabur, Cinquedea Sword, “Fighter” knife, Argentinian Saber, Sargeant Hayden’s Sword, and Continental Calvary Saber. Subsequent episodes showcased an equally varied selection of weapons, such as Dpa’dam (Tibetan Sword), Flensing knife, Spatha, Xiphos, Rhomphaia, Gladius, Dolabra, Naga sword, Vaquero Machete, Kilij, Kindjal, Grutte Pier’s sword, Dhaab Ngao, Friauler spiess polearm, The Hunter’s iconic blades, and Japanese great sword.

Unique Challenges and Twists

The second episode of the season, titled “Blackout,” introduced a unique challenge where the bladesmiths had to forge their weapons in complete darkness. They were only provided with lanterns and were not allowed to use any electrical equipment, including the time clock.

In the eleventh episode, the show took another twist by having the bladesmiths choose a card, which assigned them a specific blade to build. They had to follow the basic blade, handle, and forging parameters mentioned on the card.

Prize and Release Date

Typically, there is a sole victor who takes home a $10,000 prize at the conclusion of each episode. However, in a departure from the norm, episodes thirteen to seventeen divided the prize equally between two champions, resulting in each receiving $5,000.

In a special road edition of Forged In Fire Season 10, Episodes 1 & 2 will be broadcast together. In the inaugural episode titled “On the Road: Texas Showdown,” the Forged In Fire team will embark on a journey to the Bill Moran School of Bladesmithing in Texarkana, Texas. From this institution, they will handpick the top three bladesmiths to engage in fierce competition. These three finalists will confront two challenging rounds, and only one will emerge victorious. The triumphant bladesmith will then represent the Bill Moran School on the global stage, competing against other skilled smiths for a prestigious grand prize.

Fans can expect the familiar faces of Wil Willis, who has been guiding the bladesmiths for the past seven seasons, and the judges Ben Abbott, Doug Marcaida, David Baker, Jason Knight, and J. Neilson to return for Season 10.

In every episode of Forged In Fire, a quartet of fresh bladesmiths takes the stage, tasked with crafting one weapon in the initial two rounds and another in the third and final round. The third round consistently introduces a challenging twist to assess the bladesmiths’ capabilities. The ultimate champion of the competition claims the grand prize of $10,000, while the remaining participants gain invaluable experience from their involvement.
