When Doug says it is heavy, the SOP should be that the contestant should say, aight imma head out. Respect to the other dude, he lost like a winner.

[@charlesReed239]

Hey, i have a unrelated question. Is it possible to combine Damascus and canister steel? Like maybe layer a couple of layers of regular Damascus with the rest being filler. And if so, i wonder how that would look. Maybe even do a jelly roll Damascus out of it. Anyways, great show. Been watching this for a few years now.

When a smith makes a sword too top heavy for Doug, it certainly will keeel

Fun fact, Washington loved dressing up in a fine suits, he had several swords to match. He did not carry the Lion head sword in the Revolution because he felt the lion being a English symbol would send the wrong message.

[@chefdatboird3617]

I feel like they put the winning weapons in a hall of victors room where you can go inside and they would be in a special case stating what season/episode it won and who made it

[@Izumabakumatsu]

I think someone explained they (the smiths) can't keep them cause they count as illegal weapons, hence why they have to surrender them to the show. And the winner's weapons are displayed somewhere in the compound

[@gooseyjuicey]

@@Izumabakumatsu If that's the case then I find it strange, it doesn't take much to own a gun, yet unable to keep a sword 😂

[@Izumabakumatsu]

@@gooseyjuicey Tell that to the US government. And the people who harp about rights to own a gun. In my country, both sharp edged instrument above a certain length and guns of all kinds are illegal to own unless you get a special permit from the police. Except of course if that sharp edge instrument is used for farming or similar kind of work.

[@aaroncasey9786]

Unlike the kill test where he is square to every slash or puncture motion. The man doing the strength test has his body and arm in a position which causes injury especially when coming to a hard stop after putting weight behind the blow no there are injuries on set.
