"If you've got a sword, you've got to show off the sword, you know?" When he arrived home after securing an order, Elting said he didn't think twice about leaving the blades in his truck. Elting's case may be easier to solve than most car break-ins, in large part thanks to the merchandise stolen. Each one of the blades, he said, is adorned with his personal logo. And of the thousands of car break-ins reported in Lincoln this year, Elting is assuredly the only victim to have lost a sword he forged for a History Channel show, taking second place in Season 8 of "Forged in Fire."
