I'm a fan of historical weapons, and it was cool seeing that guy Lee rock the blunderbuss. You can tell he has a great eye for gun making. The show is really cool because it isn't so one-dimensional on bladed weapons. I think a particular note should be made about how hard it is to craft the barrel, receiver, stock, and locking mechanisms in just 40 hours of work. That's not a lot of time to create weapons such as these...so much can go wrong. Zeke, Ashley, and Trent are great hosts, particularly because they aren't the "focus". I like how the show mainly places the work of the gunsmiths in the forefront. Oh and spare me the details of "copying"...if you think about it, every competition reality show copies "Survivor"; the format has been the same for 20 years.
