Ep 9. Knives, Surfboard Bags, and Penguin Fences

In the ninth episode of season one of Made by Destruction, viewers are taken on an exciting journey to witness the destruction of three unique items: knives, surfboard bags, and penguin fences.

The episode begins with the destruction of knives. Knives are one of the most commonly used tools in the kitchen, but have you ever thought about how they are made? The show takes us inside a cutting edge factory where knives are mass-produced. Viewers get a behind the scenes look at the different types of knives produced, as well as the intricate and meticulous processes that go into creating each one. Watch as the knives are ground, honed, sharpened and put through various quality control processes before they are packaged and sent to retailers around the world. But this isn't the end. The knives then go through a shocking transformation as they are shredded, melted, and pressed. In an instant, the once sharp and durable knives are reduced to scrap metal that will be recycled into other useful products.

Next up, the show explores the destruction of surfboard bags. These bags protect surfboards while traveling and offer a convenient way to store a surfboard at home. But like all things, they eventually wear out or become damaged. In this episode of Made by Destruction, viewers get an incredible and eye-opening behind the scenes look at the process of creating and destroying surfboard bags. Starting with a visit to a surfboard bag production factory, viewers get to see how bags are designed, cut, and sewn, with a focus on the high-quality materials used to ensure they are durable and protect surfboards from damage. But it's not long before the bags are put through their paces and subjected to intense wear and tear. With sand, dirt, and water continuously taking a toll on bags, viewers get to watch as bags are ripped, shredded, and destroyed beyond repair.

Finally, the show explores the destruction of penguin fences. These fences – also known as predator-proof fences – are used by conservationists to protect penguin populations from predators such as foxes and feral cats. Viewers get to see how these fences are made and installed, as well as how effective they are in keeping predators at bay. But as time passes, the fences themselves become worn and damaged and can no longer effectively serve their purpose. In this episode of Made by Destruction, we get to see what happens to penguin fences when they are no longer needed. Watch as the fences are systematically dismantled and destroyed, with the materials recycled or repurposed for other projects.

Overall, this episode of Made by Destruction offers viewers a fascinating look at the process of creating some common items and their eventual destruction. Whether you're interested in the engineering behind knives, the durability of surfboard bags, or the conservation efforts of penguin fences, this episode has it all, and is sure to leave viewers with a newfound appreciation for the products we use every day.
