How did it hold up over time? Any bad denting or issues?

Boring

How have they been holding up?

Any chance you guys could check if they fit in a kvetun easton saber? Would love to know, thanks.

Thanks for the review, could you do a long term review in a few months? What weapons do you train with? I have the older pair and i train saber, not sure if id risk longsword with them

Useful.

This is like watching two different animals fight. One keeps moving in and out and circling like a wolf, and the other one dead still waiting to pounce like a wild cat.

How would these compare to the Purpleheart version which seems to have more coverage according to the photo?

When did you get these? I got mine in June and they have the pinky padding and better back plate but no knuckle bow

Am I a weirdo for having watched this 8 times?

I enjoyed watching this, I respect both ways very much and would very much love to find a place to study both I've done mostly hand to hand stuff for about 20 years but have never had much exposure to weapon based arts like this it would be a fun new adventure despite getting older

was it 6-4 Kendo vs Hema?

Warden vs Kensei in For Honor

where did they find this kendo guy? His skill is so bad. It seems like he is still in Kyu level, not even a 1st Dan.

The duality of fullbodyarmored fighters and a ref in a rainbow shirt and crocs... I love it^^

The movent is flawless

Does people know that kendo practicers have a very limited way of scoring contrary to any swordsman? Kendo practicers of new are very restricted but even than they can win kenjutsu, batodo and iaijtsu practicers?

Based on my observation. Kendo emphasizes spacing while Longsword school focuses on angles. Kendo has more non-restricted footwork because the power of the strikes are generated by the whole upper body. This allows for quick and snappy single edged attacks that takes the quickest path to the target. Longsword school has lead foot and back foot because longsword attacks leverages on footwork, the upper body needs to be flexible in order to make twisting strikes at unpredictable angles.

Nice video.

They go for well over $2k now. Awesome looking sword.

While this isnt flashy, it has to be one of the most intense swordfights i have ever seen

It’s really unfair the kendo sword is vastly lighter and has to be faster

Both of them have an immaculately clean technique. It's like a work of art that you can watch.

Darth Vader would whoop both in a matter of seconds or an Ottoman Janissary!

Whon won?

Phil swift? Now thats a lota damage!

Hey Phill Swift im not making fun of you so please dont fly to cali. Dude you look like a crazy person named "Crazy locs"! Its wild how much you look like him. Crazy Locs also thinks hes a fighting which is literally why I clicked this video. I thought you were him at a glance. Stay up bro dont Hema slam me.

Bro is this in Newfoundland?

Now get someone to use an actual koryu against HEMA. Kendo is not made for "fighting"

This'll be a great flow drill!

I don't know It kind of look like the kendo guy one

Народ, а что за шлем у бойца кендо?

Bro voice went from Kendo athlete 2:27 to a Sekiro enemy 2:31

Can you take them apart? For repairs and such? Can the thumb be taken off? Can you wash the textile base glove? Is it natural fabric or leather or some sort of synthetic? TY!

I feel like wilson is at a major disadvantage here. I mean theres no chance he could win the bind with that sword.

You dont have to shout random bullshit with HEMA. Clearly its superior. Cuz otherwise they seemed pretty equal to me.

Hema fighter definitely adapted from the last fight he uses more “master strikes” (I think that’s what they’re called I’m unsure as I do kendo) and the kendoka used lots of renzoku waza (repeated cuts) one thing I was surprised about was the lack of do (cuts to the stomach) as in a lot of other kendo vs other marital art videos it’s used relatively frequently as it’s quite easy to feint from men(cut to the head) and I think other weapon based martial arts aren’t as used to it

The kendoka was having a bit of trouble judging the distance on some of his cuts perhaps due to him not being able to use seme (I’m not sure how you spell it) and the Hema fighters more varied footwork

Both great.

Sekiro Fans vs Dark Souls Fans

Which style of sword are you using with those gloves?

I am not sure about how scoring works for HEMA, but from a kendo perspective he did not score any hit (Ippon) that I could see. - From a lowly 5 Kyu

bgmが邪魔だった

HEMA and Kendo may be two deferent forms of armed combat, but they sure as hell rhyme in places.

Kendo guy is playing like he is in a Kendo match.

Now that's a lot of damage

phil swift no way

Excellent review! I do wonder what would be your preference between these and infinities?

Well explained, thanks!
