Love the bloopers at the end! VLDL represent! Interesting to see period sources that discuss the grips. I note that the "palm down" grip and the "perfect grip" are not that different, it seems in your demonstration that the only difference is a slight rotation of the edge alignment in relation to your wrist, which occurs naturally as you relax and tighten your grip around the handle. Food for thought!
Very nice, thanks for sharing :) I suppose it's a matter of context, and the swordsman's ability to change his grip. I hadn't realized how many there are, but now that I think about it, it's quite intuitive!
So having thought a bit about that first grip. I do not think it is a thumb grip, but what some would call a sabre grip, with the thumb up on the handle, along the edge of the sword.
Yes, exactly! And on his coda lunga e distesa as well. That probably means that there is yet another way of throwing a punta riversa. It also ties Marozzo's GdI to dall'Agocchie ⚔️😁
@@SchildwachePotsdam now that's interesting. i just finished teaching some refreshment class about marozzo's and dally's guards. talked a bit about the differences in GdI s well. i would like to hear your take on it
@@SchildwachePotsdam sorry, my question has been cut... Federico Ghisliero is a XVIe/XVIIe master, and you show a I.33 gripping, is to do the link with side sword /rapier gripping ?
Good, thorough explanation
Nice to see someone giving a more in depth look at arming swords and the way they are used.
That's a good idea, I noticed lately when folks talk about arming sword, it's with a buckler.

Thank you so much for sharing. I really appreciate it, sir.
You're welcome, if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask 😊
Merci ! 😉
could you do a video on the swords you are using and how you like them?
Sure, I put it on the list 😊
i CANNOT be the only one who thinks the thumbnail looks kinda freaky 😭
Unfortunately not
So having thought a bit about that first grip. I do not think it is a thumb grip, but what some would call a sabre grip, with the thumb up on the handle, along the edge of the sword.
Wouldn't that called 'thumb on the back' and not thumb on the sword's side?
Nice day for fishin' ain't it?
I love your arming sword. Who makes it?
Its a the "Hanwei Tinker Early Medieval Sword" with a modified grip and blueing on the hilt parts done by Stephan.
i think i saw ghisliero's second grip on marozzo's GdI
Yes, exactly! And on his coda lunga e distesa as well. That probably means that there is yet another way of throwing a punta riversa. It also ties Marozzo's GdI to dall'Agocchie ⚔️😁
