The Casey family, led by Daniel Casey, and the Casey Arms business are the subjects of Iron & Fire, a reality television series on The History Channel. Daniel Casey is also featured on an episode of CarbonTV's original web-series Heartlandia, as he forges a traditional knife and goes hog hunting in the foothills of the Arkansas Ozarks. The close-knit, small-town company prides themselves on "quality, custom craftsmanship".
