History channel does it again Axes, Swords and Knives
Blade implements are a part of civilization since the Paleolithic Age is on again. It's a really cool show about BLADES. It's on the History channel 3/9 at 11pm Pacific.(45 mins from now) I saw 2/3's of it a few months ago and will tape it all this time. WHOOHOOO!!

Great show Ted. I was plastered to the couch while it was on! My wife asked if I wanted to watch a movie with her and my daughter ,I looked around her as she stood in front of the TV and said LOOK!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />
She turned and saw..."Oh" she said and turned to walk away.<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" />
I didn't miss a word of the dialog! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Peace.

just watched this episode. had a chuckle at the medieval re-enactors but that's me. the victorinox factory was interesting and i couldn't get enough of the company presidents accent. So entertaining!

I've seen it before, staring zombie-like through the whole thing. Good stuff.


Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

Yeah, I got the impression he really started from scratch. He had a 60lb lump of iron that he started from.
