    Hooking an opponent's neck or limb in a real fight seems unlikely, but I appreciate your research. Also crook canes so practical for everyday carry, to secure on arm or belt -- there instantly when needed for balance or defense and less threatening-looking than others. I'm studying Doyle-style Irish stick (bataireicht) myself.

    • @OliverJanseps
      @OliverJanseps  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Your first point is what I tried to say at the end of the video, so we agree in that point. But infact these hooking is a way less fashy then some knots you will get taught today 🙃
      I once take part in a seminar for the Dolyle style, very nice practical method 👌

      I use a cane because of a parachute accident in the Army. I use a solid hickory crook cane, my friend hand-made for me. We have trained traditional martial arts together for several decades. While the crook is not the primary use of the weapon, it's there for targets of opportunities. Also, by gripping the inside of the crook, one can swing the cane in the manner of a tonfa. That tip is humming! Lots of velocity. Also...Its solid hickory. Great for breaking those pesky bones in bad guys. 😊

    Fantastic, you take a couple of old pictures and made them come alive 😀 👍. Like the hat 🎩 . You are right, today canes with no crook are very rare. Unfortunately there is little materiel from Vigny. If i might repeat myself the book by Lang ("an Indian officer") is the only complete method of stick fighting that remains from that time, 1926?, and it's only for strikes at a distance. So what about more from the pictures of bartitsu, or Lang? Cheers

      @OliverJanseps Not an insult!! Fashion is cultural and social language and, while I don't know you, I can tell from how it sits and how you wear it that it is perfectly articulating the figure of Oliver Janseps through your fashion sense. I don't know you, but I could see you.
      When I say "human expat to The Shire" what I'm saying is that it gives you an almost mythical yet homey vibe while not at all appearing to be in a costume. The form shape and intent all seamlessly come together into a cohesive statement.
      Or to make it more literal to my metaphor... you aren't some human copying Shire aesthetics, you are a man who moved there and become part of that culture and world without sacrificing the things that make you unique. Its not assimilation, but adaptation and evolution. And all together it gives this beautifully blended style of both modernity and a more traditional age.

      A umbrella looked also weird in best hot summer 😉
      If you are trained you look different, your body speaks different, and so it's with carrying a cane. You have to dont care what other might be thinking.

    The knee strike took too many steps. As soon as you brought his head down with the cane, your rear leg should have been moving into the knee strike. With the extra movement, it is enough for your opponent to see what is coming ( telegraphing your move), and counter.

      I just can tell you that the creation of this play had the idea to not give a maybe poorly knee from a downwarded position, instead of lay the bodyweight on his shoulders as in a sprawl and bring the legs back to not get grabbed. So you can load an even harder knee.
