    Forged in Fire
    Season 3
    Episode 10
    Zulu Iklwa
    In each stand alone episode, four new contestants battle it out in a quest to prove they can build a particular weapon better than anyone else--and they're doing it by hand. This is the show that turns the craftsmanship, legend and excitement of weapons-building into an against-the-clock battle of wits, resourcefulness, and ingenuity.

That's how she found out that, until I went blind, I was a bladesmith. The implant that lets me see would melt if I got anywhere near a forge, but I turn into an overgrown 8-year-old watching the show.

    Love the concept of Forged in Fire. The crew is outstanding as are the contestants. My main beef is the BLARING background music, most often it’s volume is equal to what is being said. We came to learn, being able to learn we must be able to hear and understand what is being said. Their background music became very bad I have stopped watching the show. Yes, I miss the show, however I will not tolerate the music BLARING at me. From others I know watching the show they feel the same as me. Solution, turn the background music off or lose viewers. Many folks have hearing difficulties thus being able for understanding what is being said they must fight the music. Okay show director you are proud of your musicians, question which is more important your musicians or your audience’s ability for enjoying the show? Often I do turn on the show hoping the blaring music is not there, however it remains, sadly I switch channels.
