Travis Kelce claimed that he’d make a Samurai sword if they went on the show

Jason and Travis Kelce are more than prepared to battle it out in the forge as they revealed they want to make swords.

Jason was invited to fulfil his ‘dream’ of testing his blacksmithing skills by one of the judges from Forged in Fire after revealing he was a big fan of the History Channel program.

Edged weapon combat specialist Doug Marcaida extended the offer for Jason to battle against his brother Travis at the forge last week as the Philadelphia Eagles legend heads into retirement.

‘If you and Travis ever want to battle it off outside of the field, come on over to our forge, where we might teach you to be master bladesmiths and then find out if it will keal,’ said Marcaida.

Both Jason and Travis were eager to accept Marcaida’s invitation when they discussed it during their New Heights podcast Wednesday.

‘I enjoyed that, I didn’t know what it meant though,’ Travis said, referring to Marcaida’s catchphrase ‘keal.’

‘So, the judges always test the knives whenever they’re having the bladesmiths forge in the fire and Doug is always the one on the last one who’s cutting into some sort of animal or gelatin mold and it’s his job to tell if the weapon can keal, which I think is just the way he pronounces kill,’ Jason explained.

Travis’s chance to act out his Zorro fantasy could come sooner than later as both brothers insisted they had to take Marcaida up on his offer this offseason.

‘When are we doing this?’ Jason asked ‘Because it’s not matter of if but when.’

‘I think we’re going to have to time this up with Douggy and figure this out because this is definitely on the to-do list this offseason for sure,’ Travis agreed.

Travis insisted they had to make swords, declaring that he’d forge a Samauri sword and offering Jason the option of an ‘old knight’s sword’ but Jason claimed he’d go for a Viking one.

Last week an excitable Jason eagerly responded to Marcaida’s invitation on X, formerly known as Twitter, claiming it would be a dream.

‘This is the coolest thing ever, it would literally be a dream come true Doug,’ he wrote, quote-tweeting Marcaida’s video. ‘Even if it doesn’t Keel! But I definitely want it too.’

It came after Jason told his Travis about his post-retirement plans on the previous episode of the podcast.

In addition to getting into shape, Jason insisted he would make more time for housework to help out wife Kylie.

‘I’m looking forward to do something that’s not football,’ Jason shared. ‘I’ve been so committed to the sport for so long, it’s embarrassing when your wife knows how to do more housework. Her dad is an electrician, she can fish a wire.’

Travis went on to question Jason’s inability to fish a wire and claimed that he has done the task while fixing his speakers.

‘I’m talking about in walls – she could put in a new outlet if she wanted to,’ Jason said.

‘Shout out to Ky for being the handyman around the hose,’ Travis responded.

‘I like the TV show Forged in Fire,’ Jason continued. ‘I want to go to a blacksmith and make a knife, that’d be fun.

‘Count me in on that one, don’t do that without me. I’m gonna make a sword,’ Travis suggested.

‘A sword is a whole other undertaking, I don’t know we are good enough to make a sword,’ Jason closed.
