I really love how you guys fence!

My mom used to be the Community Center, Director where you guys would fence? I don’t know a lot about what you do but I’ve always seen your videos and absolutely love them. I enjoy learning new things and you have a lot to tell but I would see you guys all the time when I would come to visit my mom at work. I watched one of your videos the other day and showed my mom and she was like is that where I used to work and I said yes I love what you do keep going

I would love to invest more into Sidesword (been doing Longsword primarily for years now) and I think this video’s convinced me

I'd never expect a man in this day and age to be so knowledgeable about Swords

Yeah this is what I like about this channel it focuses on the principle while not leaving the actual act of it by the wayside

@RexOrbis 6 ай бұрын

On the contrary. The wealth of information available for free nowadays and the ability to practice without risk of severe harm means that swordfighters have never been more experienced.

Whoops! Fortunately, they're spatulated so they're pretty safe without one.

@@robinswords, hi there, quick question if you don't mind: how much do these swords weigh, please? Out of curiosity.

I was wondering, what is better: polearm or spear and shield 🤔 Aside from range protection, both do good vs swords but which provides greater flexibility

@jayred2908 4 ай бұрын

Depends on the user and context.

Question! Why are the movements mostly in one plane? Most of the duel was merely back and forth, why not try to find flanking positions? Is it something to do in duels or is it too risky?
