      Jonathon Tritto I think there was also the fact that his forge (Dragon's Breath Forge) had previously been undefeated in the show's history, so I think he might have been dwelling on the idea of meeting that standard a little too much.

      2 years back After I saw this show in History channel on my TV. I was searched so many times for this video in CZcams by using different names like making shield in forged in fire, long haired men's in forged in fire, best weapons making in forged in fire etc.. but I couldn't find this video.
      But finally without any search, CZcams recommend this video.
