Forge Masters is a Vitosian competition series that airs on Noble.

In each season, bladesmiths compete to win money over the course of 3-4 weeks.


Format

The set, referred to as "The Forge," is stocked with a wide range of metalworking equipment, including propane forges, coal forges, grinders, power hammers and hydraulic presses. Medical personnel are present to treat any injuries or other health problems and may, at their discretion, disqualify smiths who are unable to continue safely. At the end of each round, the smith whose weapon is judged to be the least satisfactory must surrender it and leave the competition.

In each episode, the bladesmiths are tasked to build a weapon over the course of one day. The weapons are then submitted for testing against objects and environments. One person is eliminated at the end of the episode.


The Judges

Rodrigo "Roddy" Ranaldi, the host, is a para-rescue specialist with martial arts training.

Jonah Serpico, an edged-weapons specialist and Vitosian military contractor.

Renzo Biondo, a knife a sword expert, has over 16 years making knives and edged weapons.

Sabato Zoppi, a Limelight City prop maker and former professor of historical weapons.
