You: What swords do you use? What mask do you use? What gloves do you use? But most importantly: Where are those glorious shinguards from?? Me: (makes a video about gear)

@7:05 when the model lays down threw me for a good laugh lol

Martin's got balls of steel, that's why he don't need no groin protection.

Now we just need a video on your pre-tournament warm up routine! It might not be an issue for you, but getting over pre-fight jitters enough to warm up properly is a major hurdle for a lot of us.

Nice video to show my wife before I shop around for my next few swords ;D Thanks for this.

Uhm, despite the fact that I like the video in general being a videomaker too a really like this idea! Maybe in the far future I will take inspiration too from this work.

Thanks for sharing an insight into your gear and reasons behind your choices.

great video! I was looking forward to something like this from you.

great! im watching and analyze your video everyday!!! i learned from you so many things. thank you fabian!

And what GLORIOUS shin guards they are! Your shins could go on tour with those guards! Lovely video as usual!

It makes me laugh when someone thumbs down something like this. "I don't like your gear so thumb down" haha . Good video mate. I wish I could own at least half of your gear. :)

Ordered a triple shot from Sigi and really looking forward to a feder, arming sword, and those really pretty bucklers!

Great video, Martin! Always useful to see what ultraprofessionals are using in their practice.

Pretty new to this, but loving your vids. Been doing your lazy workout stuff multiplied a few times as conditioning while under quarantine. Super hard to find gear in Asia though.

I have asked about the shin guards in one of the previous Longsword videos and I did get an answer! So read more carefully^^ Thanks anyway Martin:)

Nearly my exact kit except I use a rearguard mask as my club has lots of heavy hitters and I use Spes heavies as I have huge hands and sparring gloves never work for me Agree on the bicep protection on the AP light being an issue, I get the pro additions for forearm and elbow

Nothing about the cups (elbow and down-below)... Biggest letdown in HEMA history... Otherwise great and informative video as always :D

Sweet I know I've asked you my fair share of questions

Être bien équiper, pour pouvoir mieux s'entraîner. ...💪👍

Hello! Nice video. It would be really cool if you can put a link of the stores where you get your products, specially the swords.

What size is your name patch on your jacket and where did you get it from? Everywhere I look is 6x2 inches and thats to small for the back of the jacket

What sword and buckler system do you practice, and would consider ever making videos on it?

Mr. Fabian... Can you tell us which All-Star mask you use? And, did they make it with a black bib? Thanks so much for your time and attention to my questions! You are truly an inspiring swordsman!

I don't see the Rey shins for sale anywhere in the US, dammit. They look great. I wonder if someone makes a comparable product? I haven't found it yet.

Man I wish fencing was bigger in the US...

5:00 do you have any experience with the hourglass cuffs? I'm gonna be getting sparring gloves, but I'm not sure if I should go with the classic or not.

Hello Fabian! Have you tried pro gauntlet? Does it change your preference?

Is protection needed in HEMA? or is it physically needed. I am a bigger person so finding stuff that fits sucks. But I am okay with a bruise or two

I haven't been to find the All-Star mask overlay (@14m35s) on line... Any thoughts on that, Mr. Fabian?

6:51 so you normally don't have any hard protection on the joint? Or is it part of the jacket?

Did you try Rearguard masks from Arming Guild ?

Zdravím, chtěl jsem se zeptat jestli ty kožené rukavice, které požíváte na meč a pukléř nebo rapír jsou uznávané na turnajích jako dostatečná ochrana?

What do you think about SPES NG jackets?

What gloves do you use for the rapier/sideword?

Hm, is Allstar just flat out not making those mask overlays anymore?

You missed the daggers =(

You are very tall. 150cm is 5’. 30cm =1’. If 150cm is only 2/3-3/4 your height, you must be well over 6’ tall, close to 6’6”

Dobrý den. Sleduju už několik trenérů HEMA. Pořád lituji toho že se nikdo nesnaží mliuvit v češtině. Mam pocit že v mateřštině byb to mohlo oslovit další zájemce o tento sport. Nechcete to zkusit? Já bych ze to poděkoval.

In theory, I like what your doing, BUT too much use of the word 'product' and too much selling stuff. The reality is, it does not take this aspect of medieval sword fighting to exist. OK, probably the first vid watched, from you, but invariably it says to much of the wrong stuff regarding you. Career; bad choice again. A 'career' implies you are making this a professional money making effort, which is a real turn-off... 99.9999999% of people could not do that; and I wouldn't want too. Medieval sword fighting it an avid pastime, not something we want to feel some smuck is living from.
