The first reality show I've been into since survivor season 1. I don't know anything about knife making, which i guess makes this show even more interesting to me heck, just hearing that third judge say "it will kill" every week makes this show worth it. That guy is AWESOME

After the first season I can say that I have enjoyed it quite a lot. However, it just seems to be lacking some personality compared to other shows of this nature. Still a good watch, even if you don't know a lot about metal forging like myself.
