Story Television Network has acquired 214 episodes of Forged in Fire, a competition series featuring bladesmiths creating complex weaponry. The show starts on Story Television July 5 at 8 a.m., and the network will air 24 hours of back-to-back episodes each Friday starting at 8.
Each episode sees four contestants design and forge deadly weapons, from ancient Japanese Katanas to Viking battle axes, with steel, fire and a wide range of tools. Their weapons are then put to the test, and one bladesmith is left standing at the end of each episode to win $10,000 and the title of Forged In Fire champion.
