The "Lords of War" (awful name) was a nice low key show with mostly a focus on historical firearms but with a couple of things that fit in here in the form of a Scottish basket hilt broad sword and a steel limb cross bow. I even recognized Larry Harley as the blade guy on the show. http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/channel/lords-of-war/videos/sons-of-scotland/

Larry's health has been a problem for years and he got waaaayyyyyy behind on delivering knives he's promised and been paid for. He appears to be doing ok on the show and at least one of the guys I know that waited for a long time to get is knife for boar hunting in Europe finally got it so I hope Larry got caught up with everyone.

Anyway, the show wasn't overblown and completely unbelievable like some and was fun to watch and there's not much out that you can say that about.
 
Thanks hso . i appreciate the kind words.
i hope everyone watches and enjoys it
we try to do history w a little corn pone thrown in by me.
 
Watched it also and thoroughly enjoyed it. Only problem I had with it was that weird ol guy with the white beard that was destroying those watermelons. Waste of good melons in my mind. :D Of course he did make up for it with some good ole time sayings I haven't heard in a long time. Lot of them said by my Granddad back when "HECK" was still a pup. Looking forward to more episodes.

By the way Larry, which one of them are you? :foot:

Blessings,

Omar
 
I saw it, and i enjoyed it.



thanks big. its something ive never done before
knives have been good to me .
look where thay have taken me
 
none of them
they hired some one to look like me:)
u know the only reason i,m on this show is because of my dashing boyish good looks
BTW the whole crew ate watermelon that day.
w a good sword i think i could kill at least 10 watermelon and 15 to 20 gallon jugs.
its all int he follow through.
if u watch close i do a TERRIBLE job on my swing. I,m a country boy that played baseball(quite good i might add) so i cant help but swing for that left field fence.
the sayings are stuff i learned in my youth and as an adult tried to cultivate them
to hell w college:)
its the hillbilly way
some times in production the whole mess would come to a screeching halt, and they would say "what does that mean"!!!!! some of the stuff u will never see was hilarious
soon i will have t shirts w "hammerisms" on them
no one had heard the word perxactley
sometimes u gotta plow around the stumps
thats just more gravy on the biscuit
ant no dog like an ol dog
etc etc
 
Interesting show. Thanks for posting.
