I dont know who out there has seen the movie 'The Hunted' yet, I rented it a 
night or 2 ago.  I noticed a part in it where the crazy guy is on the run 
and needs a weapon fast.  He finds some scrap rusted metal, builds a fire 
out of twigs and sticks and then continues to forge a knife blade.  I 
thought it was interesting because his 'forge' had no air supply, he used a 
rock (I think) for an anvil and another slab of metal for a hammer.  My best 
guess was he finished his knife in an hour or less.  Now Im no expert 
blacksmith but this whole scene seemed totally 'hollywood' with no realism.  
Heh, the things they think they can show on the big screen and try to 
convince people about.  Just thought it was funny...
