Swordsmith

"The pen is mightier than the sword." While this quote may ring true for some, it's clearly not the case for Michael Craughwell - a real life swordsmith. Creator of weapons sharp, pointy, and most likely to draw blood; Michael has gained a wicked prominence when he posted a video on YouTube that depicts him huffing, staggering, and demonstrating the means of his job. That’s not all! Aside his YouTube videos awed by millions,  he has even been featured on Discovery Channel’s reality show series called ‘Big Giant Swords’. Michael joins Audrey Raj on the show today to give us a glimpse of his cutting-edge career.
