Hi All
But FIF does show smithing skills and introduces a wide audience to swords and knives which can only be a good thing for our hobby.

I got interested in WWI through comic books as a v young boy and looking at a German infantry mans pickelhaube as he flew a robot bat, long story.
But I now know and understand a lot more, hopefully

An an introducer to edged weapons it is far far better than the very little else about weapons shows.

I sit down with my 10 year old and he is learning all the time and critiques the work.

I wish they spent more time on the 5 day challenge at the latter part of the show though.

Regards

Ken
