When Ilya showed up on this episode, I knew immediately that the other smiths were gonna realize really soon that he’s the protagonist and they’re the side characters
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 RUclips 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, RUclips recommend this video. Really he is true gem, the way he makes shield with flexible glove is 🔥
Me : *Breaks sword on enemy’s shield* Enemy: “Unfortunately your sword has suffered a catastrophic failure. I’m gonna have to ask to please leave the battlefield.”
Ilyas face when they whipped out the crossbow. 😂 "🙄really? Dont insult my shield with that toy. Get Joerg sprave here with a full auto javelin launcher"
Really wasn't fair. Ilya has an insane amount of skill. He is very humble, but I've seen the guy forge Katanas the old way. The way they did it back in 1500s Japan. Watching him work is like art in motion.
@@zickykane5206 Completely agree, they need to adopt skill based match making when it comes to Ilya because he is honestly a modern day forge master he can make anything out of anything
@@PrinceTrunks92 Ilya cooks his own ingots... yeah, he's that good at what he does. this may not have required that, but it's something Ilya can do if called for.
@@sihilius He doesn't need ego to tell us how good he is. His skills and his knowledge coupled with his willingness to share and educate shows us how good he is. And the guy Ilya was up against knew he was toast as soon as he seen what he had to build, but still gave it a red hot go
Yes second season I was shocked too when I saw season 2 and he won, I think illya was with man at arms by this time not sure though but it was awesome seeing him put his skills to work
@@Hartwig870 you can watch "beat the judges series", the judges are all formidable or master class blacksmiths and earned their places. Not saying Ilya can't beat them but you said "like they ever could" seems very disrespectful.
@@clorkmagnus yeah, Dave Baker made most of the display items they use in the show. He probably made the shield the judges showed to the contestants here.
@@SheepyPanda95 master smiths have lost on the show too. Also, master smith isnt a title given to good blacksmiths, it's a title you apply for and then partake in a test to earn. It should indicate skill, but it does not mean someone without it is of inferior skill.
@@tk_the_onion that's true but you also gotta realize a lot of the test procedures are based on the ABA master tests just upped in difficulty. Ilya I believe is going for his master Smith title while Matt is going for his journeymens
It's like.. Mike shield wasn't bad, and a lot of other contestants gave not totaly finished tools to the judges, but Ilya did so much in those 5 days and did such a fabulous and perfetcly working shield, that it could not compare.
He had a masterpiece of a shield, with a built in Gauntlet, and blade catchers. His metal work was incredibly intricate, and Mike just did not stand a chance. Ilya is truly a master with metal.
Going up against Illya is just already fighting uphill. Its not just his experience but his mental state when making his pieces that let him go beyond basic level stuff.
This one is from ss1 or 2 of forge in fire - i watched the show, Ilya is working at Baltimore Knives and Sword at that time, but the shop working for man at arm is not them, it's years late they came in and do the man at arm refored. At the show ilya wasn't as potent at blade making as he is now. His kukri flawed and have delamination.
Ilya's shield along with Ricardo's ikakalaka were some of the biggest flexes over the competition in forged history. It was ridiculous how much of a blowout the final builds were.
@@notanicenamebutlovesrockan9265 yeah. He's the Brazilian guy who made 2 swords in the finals and then later became a judge on the Latin version of the show.
I feel like Ricardo is the only person who can give Ben Abbott a reasonable challenge in an 8-hour build. A 4-day build, and Ilya can definitely compete.
Ilya's shield looks like something out of a sword and sorcery film AND it held up perfectly. I feel like the judges didn't give him enough praise. That gothic gauntlet on it looks so cool.
The sheer skill to create a shield with a built in gauntlet thats both comfortable and functional, within a time limit of just 5 days, is utterly amazing! Ilya is without a doubt, a true MASTER forge smith.
To be fair though, hammers and maces were really introduced to counter heavily armored enemies. So like the old battle hammers with the one spiked end, they were made specifically to be used against plate and shields.
When ilya appeared I immediately knew the other has no chance wining this It would have been really exciting to see ilya forge a blade instead of a shield but still an elite blacksmith can forge anything
So happy, ILYA WON!! One of my favorite episodes, even if he would have lost. He is a true artist. I can't imagine what he will do next, I eagerly await.
While I applaud the Dragon's Breath Forge for spawning a total of three Forged In Fire Champions, the moment I saw Ilya was going to be in this episode, I knew I'd be cheering for him the entire time. I'm still waiting for the rest of the guys at Baltimore Knife And Sword to show up on this show (I noticed Ilya engraved his first two rounds knife with Baltimore Knife And Sword's initials).
When I saw Iliya I was sure the other guy is toast. I have seeing his work few times in the past and he is getting better and better. Keep up the great work mate !
I saw Ilya in this, and instantly knew he was about to out class everyone he went against. He is super talented and has made tones of great works on awe me and his and Matts channel "That Works".
@@ammagon4519 No no, he had two years of Blade smithing. He's been making Armor for many many years. If you ever watch his work on "Man at arms" you'll see that he has learned how to forge a Katana the way the ancient Japanese did. He's very truly gifted in metal work.
@@zickykane5206 forging katanas the way the japanese did isnt really more difficult than the stuff he normally does. the steel was harder to work with because its worse quality than modern steels but other than that not harder than a normal blade he makes
Ilya definitely deserved it. He's a true genuis with metal work like this and its just phenomenal to see his work come to fruition exactly the way he says and expects it to. He is a disciplined man with integrity as he maintains not only keeping his forged products flawless but his composure, his focus, and his dedication. Nice 👌🏼👌🏼
You could see Iliya's innocent face just light up with enthusiasm. Armor, as he explained, was his first mastery. Contrast to his toothy, genuine grin, you could see the other dude's heart absolutely sink down to the floor in seconds
Hmm... i feel Michael's shield would be one that would be distributed to the common infantry/foot soldiers, while Ilyas would be an officer's shield...🤔
@@lylesabado6923, yes or shields with sharpened edges. "Wolverine" claws would be to long for the way they tested it on the show though, and likely to heavy. More like spiked gauntlets than claws. I have seen some very nice drawings of some shields with serrated edges, never looked to see if anyone ever made stuff like that. I mean without a lot of experience that would be just as dangerous to the one using it.
Whenever I speak to anyone about Forged in Fire, I always talk about Ilyas shield. Such an amazing piece of deadly art and craftsmanship. Sooo happy to see it on here 😄👍
"It matches all the minimum requirements. It will be able to be tested." Cuz that's how you want to be able to describe the piece you're bringing into the final round. Gee I wonder who will win.
Imagine how embarrassing it would have felt coming home to his fellow bladesmiths who won their turn in Forged in Fire The round is very advantageous to Ilya and his expertise tho but Michael just was able to do atleast the minimum
to be fair this is barely a contest... ilya is alot better than the judges themselves. this is the equivalent of a math student trying to score points higher than a professor.
They couldn't have asked Ilya to come back because after he crafted that shield he casually forged an entire tank with the remaining daylight before he went to sleep.
