/HEMA/ General - my buckler's face when Edition

>What is HEMA?
HEMA stands for Historical European Martial Arts, sometimes also called Historical Fencing.
It's reconstructing how to fight with swords, daggers, polearms, and other weapons based on old European fighting treatises

These are indeed both terrible exchanges, but neither is the one worth seeing from last year's Black Horns.

I don't have a timestamp but I though it was obvious that I was referring to the retard getting stabbed in the arm in the R&D tournament.

I was trying to make the polish saber langlet crossguard work aesthetically into a 2 handed weapon but the more I prototype the more I'm liking the 2 handed szabla look, I wonder if they were used historically

the hand guard loses its' function once you make the handle that long. the closest thing to what you've come up with is the kriegsmesser, and the people who have made and used them seemed to prioritize protecting the sides rather than the front.

do you mean the knucklebow? I think it will serve fine to protect the lead hand at least

If I'm not mistaken I've seen examples of 2handed falchions that have a bit of a knucklebow

Who makes good training swords? I want something sturdy that won't break apart and is about as heavy as a real sword, but isn't dangerous to swing around in my home and I won't be able to cut myself with it

I like Fabri Armorum's longsword. It's heavy because it's built to last.

Sadly, that's what happens when you wear a jacket that was made for a gimmick. Officer has no padding in the arms whatsoever so it's heavily susceptible to injury.
Also what did they think would happen letting them use rapiers with such narrow tips without tipping them like that? Puncture resistance does fuck all when you're that negligent.
