What is the name of the reality show where bladesmiths compete to forge weapons?

The reality show where bladesmiths compete to forge weapons is Forged in Fire.

The History competition series places four bladesmiths in a multi-round elimination contest. Contestants forge knives or other bladed weapons from supplied steel or salvaged metal, then refine, sharpen, and test them. Judges evaluate craftsmanship, design, durability, and performance, while a failed or unsafe weapon can eliminate its maker.

Forged in Fire premiered on June 22, 2015, and its competition draws heavily on historical weaponry. In the final round, the remaining smiths usually recreate a historically significant weapon at their home forges before returning for testing. The standard episode winner receives $10,000 and the title “Forged in Fire Champion.” It is easy to confuse the show with Iron Chef because both use timed, judged competition, but Iron Chef is a cooking program; American Chopper focuses on custom motorcycles, and Alone is an outdoor survival series.
