Outline
In a 2020 home quarantine special filler episode, two months are taken up with the three bladesmith judges while they are at home. Each judge forges a blade over a fortnight at his home forge and tests the finished product himself, all the while being his own camera crew (which J. Neilson’s wife, Beckie, complains about). Ben Abbott forges a replica Sutton Hoo pattern-welded sword, supposedly belonging to King Raedwald. J. Neilson forges a competition chopper with both canister Damascus and san mai techniques. David Baker makes a basket-hilted sword with a Damascus steel blade and a historical recreation of a 12-piece decorated basket.
