Thoughts on Forged in fire

I tried to watch it with an open mind. I agree it seemed to belittle or discount the amount if work/time that goes into making a knife properly. On the positive side, I think it will generate some interest and general awareness of custom knives. I do wish they focused more on the last segment which would have been a better demonstration of what goes into a custom knife. Hopefully this will lead to more customers, I just hope they don't think you can produce a knife from start to finish in three hours.

Actually they give you 6 hours - 3 to form the blade and temper it, and 3 to finish it. And depending on the complexity, up to 4 hours to form the blade.
