Axel & Rickard historical european martial art longsword steel sparring

Axel (blue elbow pads) and Rickard (big lad, all black) from GHFS in some steel sparring. In order to give the sparring some focus Anders "Nelle" Nilsson from MnHFS gave both fighters a secret objective to work on during the sparring session (which went on much longer than this clip, Axel was supposed to work on grappling entries and Rickard was to work on Zwerchaus).

The steel swords (Axel is using an Albion Liechtenauer and Rickard a Pavel Moc of some kind) are equipped with point stoppers made of metal and rubber, which unfortunately weighs down the swords a little bit, making for slower fighting.
