I watched the show and it was quite interesting--very detailed!

I think we may well have seen this on Sky a month or so ago. The details of the forging process were fascinating. It is one thing to read of it and understand but quite another to see it being done and really appreciating the sheer effort involved.

I read the description, but missed the show, once my wife is done with the olympics for the day, I have to see if I can find it on TIVO
