Anyone else watching the current season on Forged in Fire on The History Channel?

I think they made a bad decision last night on Season 10 Episode 12 -- Beat the Unbeaten: A Cutlass Above

The cutlass of the prior unbeaten "champion" -- Collin Sage -- who actually won only twice before -- broke in the 1st test for sharpness & strength. The other prior champion (forget his name) built a cutlass that was too long by 1/8" & didn't have clip point (as was required) & was disqualified & his cutlass wasn't tested & they declared Sage the winner

The loser was pissed (w/o cause IMO because he didn't build a blade w/in specs) & Sage didn't think he deserved to be declared the winner but he was nonetheless.

Since Sage's blade broke & the other guy was disqualified, IMO the judges should have just declared a 'no contest" and allowed for a rematch.

If you watched this episode of the show, what do you think?🤔
Just watched it and yeah, pretty crazy. By the letter of the law the outcome makes sense, but in the spirit of sportsmanship, agree that they should do it again. And although the guy was yelling about not ever saying anything good again about FiF, who knows, maybe they'll bring him back for some kind of redemption thing.
