Amazing, I also practice Victorian era boxing, this guy is really good

Great video.

Based asf

Google books has it

What was the book with the rough and tumble reference?

Would like to see some reading or videos on the Spanish Belduque

Sound quality is terrible. Almost impossible to understand.

Nice job, gentlemen.

I've just taken up fencing. Been looking up information on the evolution of fencing over time and this is by far the most interesting discussion of the topic I've come across. Thanks very much for sharing your knowledge.

Couldn't catch this live: glad to be watching now!

Soul Calibur/Soul Edge - from the beginning has had many of the elements of fencing, with the joys/annoyance of facing many different weapons. It has questions of Distance and Timing for sure, also the difference between quick and slow attacks. At certain levels the so-called "Power moves" are absent so it can more accurately reflect melee combats. Now available on Xbox etc. I have used it for practice Distance and Timing where I couldn't in actual life. Again, there are some truly dodgy applications in the use of some weapons, also some which are "relatively good."

Great video thanks for sharing this invaluable information!!

Really good

Thank ye so much for the video, it really helped me use my saber better :D

Looking forward to training with your club one day sir.

you look like you've never been in a fight in your life.

DUDE, YOUR CHANNEL!! This is the greatest hidden Gem I've ever found....

WHY have I never seen this video b4???

Vale Tudo is way older than 90s. The first MMA tv show of the Gracies, Heroes of The Ring was cancelled in 1960. And Helio had a MMA/Vale Tudo fight against Dudu in 1935

Very interesting!

Thanks for sharing this with us!

Brilliant interview. Thanks to Tim and Kaja. Well done, all.

I was serious by the way when I said you should tell me: *One thing you liked and would like to see expanded or repeated. *And one thing that we should add, change or subtract. I'm really keen to hear your thoughts.

Tim is green is that you

Can be Cutlass apply to my technique fencing

I appreciate this your video

Is that Alfred Hutton sword techniques with some others also.

The similarities between baton and longsword are there but not one-to-one. Giuseppe Cerri makes these equivalencies in his 'trattato teorico-pratico della sherma di bastone' in his preface making those brief comparisons to Marozzo. I am currently exploring those and rn i think there are more similarities to Fiore in the style than Marozzo. I am slowly going through his book on my blog where i go into these details lesson by lesson. Not much on there yet but its coming. I recommend getting a hold of Cerri's book, its translated. But things like the lack of edge is called out as well as the ability to slide the hands along the stick. Also says that blows like cut 1 & 2(called bandolieras) are secondary blows to a cut 7(colpo di testa). The style is very much based on the italian sabre methods predominant in N. Italy at the time but has a feel to it that again, to me has shades of Fiore. I will be checking out more hutton now though, great lesson, love the channel. 🍻

Hi there, a bit old but what is the bare knuckle response to upper cuts?

Here in America there are several Bowie knife instructors such as Dwight McLemore, Peter Kautz and James A. Keating. There is also a living tradition from Argentina called Esgrima Criolla.

I wonder if there is some correlation between the prevalence of feints with a flying point to the sportification of fencing. Your explanation of why you tend to prefer two separate motions makes a lot of sense - you want to give you opponent time to register and react to the initial attack, but I wonder if in Olympic style sports fencing they might tend to prefer the flying point because so much of it is a reaction game, and it is assumed that both fencers have extremely well trained reaction times?

one step closer to being a pirate.

The thumbnail of a familiar book brought me here. I'm not familiar with your other source though. Thanks for the well-articulated analysis and for giving me more sources to research

Great video! Love this kind of podcast content on this subject matter.

This is interesting

These videos are such great references when I need to source poses for my art. Thank you for the info!!

Awesome video Tim (eve if I was scared for that window from time to time 😅). Next time I'm in NSW I'll have to see if I can drop by to one of the events you guys attend! Keep up the amazing work.

I was always told to point your blade at the opponent’s face when in a medium guard, so as to negate their depth perception of your weapon.

I'd just like to say how much I appreciate these lessons. I started to learn broadsword during lockdown as an absolute beginner and you've become such a valuable source of information. Thank you!

36:45 “Parry, cutnumbaone. Parry, cutnumbaone. Parry, cutnumbaone.”

it was swords what was banned and this was the solution to bypass said ban. People actually carried these, even the huge ones, openly, hanging from their belt. And they werent only for the low class, many noblemen ended up carrying these things around too.

Interesting video

This could almost be something Hollywood got right - if I'm remembering the knife work in 'The Pride & The Passion' between Cary Grant and Frank Sinatra correctly.

i like how there is an entire folder for mead

i learned this myself and it took much longer than this. lmao thank you.

Great video! Maybe you should check out my friend Cagey on youtube he's hosting a big knife giveaway

Loved It!
