The Bardiche Summary

In one of the toughest competitions to date, four bladesmiths must start from the ground up, building their own coal forges using materials scavenged from a storage unit. The elements test every ounce of the smiths' resolve as they forge signature blades outside in the scorching sun without any power tools at their disposal. After an intense round of testing the remaining two smiths return home to recreate a brutal European pole axe: the Bardiche. With one shot left to prove their blade-making skills, which smith will have what it takes to claim the title of Forged in Champion and $10,000?.
