Forged In Fire is off to another good season on the History Channel .... the folks who produce it have come up with a spinoff show named Knife or Death .... it centers on contestants completing on a course using a knife to chop and stab a variety of objects .... the first two episodes have been pretty good

I'm looking forward to seeing the episode on the Musketeer rapier. A well made rapier is a work of art. Due to the early start of my work day I am in bed before the new episodes come on at 21:00 so we tape them for later.

They speak English with Dutch subtitles. The same with all foreign language programs.

I watched several episodes streamed on Prime, and enjoyed them a lot, although I didn't always agree with their choice of the winners. ;) But then, when do we? :lol:

I really like watching the process of creating the knives, something I would love to do rather than just buying blade blanks and building the knives from there and making the sheath, as I do now. I just don't want to buy the forge and other supplies for a hobby. :(

So... I'm stuck with buying the blanks. :)

understood and agree .... I'd sure like to make a few to give to our kids and grandkids but the only what that would happen is to buy kits

I watch when I remember to, still enjoy it although I had to tone it down. It was getting like a college drinking game for me, every time they made a knife I went on line and bought another one...

At least Forged in Fire has a historical aspect. There's still some shows I watch on History Channel like Forged in Fire and American Pickers and the occasional show actually about history that hasn't already aired 50 times, most of their reality shows like Swamp People and others I can do without. Used to watch Pawn Stars, but got tired of their personalities, did kind of like the Old Man.

Travel Channel is pretty much Ghost and Supernatural Channel now, I used to watch it a lot when most of the shows were about travel.

I can't watch out here... No cable or satellite tv. Not enough monthly data to allow streaming. I really liked the show too. Excellent all around.

I'm surprised you can't get Dish or Direct TV .... we used Direct for many years and are now with Dish .... we've literally used them from ocean to ocean and border to border

Not going to pay the rates for them to keep jumping the price every few months. Lol. Should have been a bit clearer in my initial post. We haven't subscribed to cable or satellite tv out here. 8-) We rode that coaster in VA. Once was enough.
