Which smith will survive the battery of tests to earn the title of Forged in Fire champion and $10,000?

Two families go head-to-head in an all-out battle not only against another household, but also each other.

After a fierce round of tests, the two remaining competitors return home to recreate the rapier inspired by Inigo Montoya from The Princess Bride. Which smith will be the breadwinner and bring honor to their name with the title of Forged in Fire Champion along with the $10,000 prize?
