Three bladesmiths face a unique challenge in the Memory Game competition. They have only 20 seconds to memorize a complex knife cutout before forging a Damascus blade from memory. The smith who comes closest to matching the shape wins $1,000 and advances in the competition.
Using their Damascus skills and short-term memory, the smiths must recreate a dagger with multiple peaks and flanges. With only three hours to forge, will their memories hold up under pressure? Find out in this special early round cutdown of Mind Over Metal.
