Doug Marcaida rose to prominence as a judge on the History show Forged in Fire. Aside from that, Doug is a knife designer and maker. He creates designs for FOX Knives in Italy and maintains a website where he promotes his work.
Doug Marcaida, like many other celebrities, prefers not to share much about his personal life, even though it is difficult for his fans to believe that he is not dating anyone.
Bio, Career, Net Worth, and Injury
Doug Marcaida’s background indicates that he is of American nationality and Filipino ethnicity. However, Doug’s birthday remains a mystery, raising the question of his age.
Doug is a weapon combat specialist who is well-known for his lethal blades and weapons all over the world. Despite this, he rose to prominence after appearing as a judge on the reality show “Forged in Fire” alongside J. Neilson and David Baker.
Recently, he designed the most lethal weapons and blades known as “Direct Action Response Theory” (DART), as well as arms in collaboration with Bastien Bastinelli. In addition, he sells Mako and Le Piquer weapons.
Doug practices ‘Kali,’ a Filipino martial arts style that employs batons, knives, sticks, improvised weapons, and open hand techniques.
Later on, he developed his style of Kali called ‘Marcaida kali’ with the aim to protect people which is the overall vision of any martial arts discipline.
His tools have even appeared in films such as ‘Blade,’ ‘300,’ and the ‘Bourne’ series. He currently runs three martial arts schools in New York as well as one in Romania, where he teaches ‘Marcaida kali.’
Doug posted on his Facebook page in 2017 that he had a “boo-boo” four months ago while performing a test; however, there is no information on what caused the injury.
Doug, as the judge of the reality show, undoubtedly receives a large salary from the show as well as a significant amount from the sale of his blades, but he has kept the exact amount of his net worth hidden from the media.
Relationship Status: Single?
Dough is a very private person, so he isn’t open about his current relationship status.
Though he is an active Facebook and Instagram user, he frequently shares posts and pictures about his designs and works rather than pictures of women.
I can’t speak for the woman, but he is very fond of his inventions, implying that his only passion is knives and blades.
