Absolutely love your show in which you discover lot of very talented bladesmiths. I wonder if the judges ever brutally punish the blades they make for themselves or customers as they do on the show. The reward of ten thousand dollars is awfully nice but as hard of work it is to do what they do is not only physically challenging but it's mentally challenging as well. Frankly a feel as though the reward should be nothing less than twenty thousand dollars and I know I'm not the one paying the money but this is my opinion. Hoping for ten or more years of production.
