Longsword Sparring - Jordan vs Sam

[@absolutesilence]

Always good to see another Fiorist.

[@AVGyerra22]

4:38 Probably the most realistic sparring you'll ever see that represents how they actually would fight

[@chonkcat2]

Best part imo

[@danielantrobus7232]

love it!

[@SilentTank4767]

I wasn't ready for the first brawl mao

[@chonkcat2]

4:38 I think that's Boar Tusk vs. High Guard of the Lady at first, but the hilarity after made the video for me.

[@atomic_wait]

How tall are the subjects? Maybe it's just the perspective, but they look tall. Asking as a tall fencer#

[@AcademyofHistoricalFencing]

They are indeed tall. Sam (in red) is 6'5", and Jordan is pretty close to that as well.

[@emilioayerbedelatorre1940]

is trushing forbiden?

[@MrPants-zu6dm]

Great video and great channel! I challenge the fighters to review thier edge alignment during this fight. Still a great match.

[@InSanic13]

Is it me, or are these feders ringing a lot more than the other steel weapons in your videos?

[@AcademyofHistoricalFencing]

Probably a little yes, but its also the setting. We don't do a lot of longsword in the Newport club, and the smaller hall causes more echo than the Bristol one, but the Regenyei feders do also give quite a ring.

[@IndividualFreeman5475]

My worthy class weapon.

[@flintrocks]

Great stuff! I like when they switched swords 😂 You guys practice the German tradition right?

[@AcademyofHistoricalFencing]

We do, from Meyer. Though Jordan is a Fiore practitioner who who runs another club nearby, and Sam does a lot more with sabre, rapier and sidesword than he does longsword.

[@metalwarrior5629]

Hell's Yeah

[@RemusKingOfRome]

LOL Just like in Mount & Blade - ACOK. .... not. Next try 2 handed hammers.

[@dimitrizaitsew1988]

I really want you to explain the proper use of the longsword. Not much I can learn from these sparring videos.

[@derkernspalter]

That's why it's called sparring video and not teaching lesson.

[@hubert_c]

Rear-weighted guards in full gear… awkward.

[@Shiresgammai]

You need to focus more on the basics, gentlemen.

[@echoes5476]

throw the pommel

[@afancypirate7754]

end him rightly
