  • Wir kämpfen im Halbschwert, weil das ganze Harnischfechten darstellen soll!

  • Excellent job, well presented and executed. The very practical and realistic abandonment of various weapons after the point is passed is something of a shock, but seems very correct. Ignore the full plate elitists. I've seen plenty of extremely well-equipped fat men who bang weapons together like children while wearing the most exquisite armor. What matters is your scholarship and your intensity in training. Keep up the good work. Good luck.

  • Honestly, these guys have put together a far more elegant, not to mention cinematically superior work than MOST of what I've seen on YouTube. If they choose to do it in hockey gear, I couldn't care less.

  • 5:01 right in the family jewels.

  • that was badass

  • techniken sind sind ok aber Leute .... warum zieht ihr euch sone fachingskostüme an und dann auch noch Holzschwerter ?!?! Legt euch bitte mal echte Harnische und Blankwaffen zu das sieht nicht nur tausendmal besser aus sondern macht auch tausendmal mehr Spass. viele Grüße

  • its rare to see that kind of intent of movement in weapons combat.

    regardless of whether it was staged or otherwise, both combatants move with

    purpose, job well done.

  • buen trabajo, ese tipo de armadura esta excelente para praticar este estilo.

  • Now THAT's how it's supposed to look. Swings and slashes were practically useless against heavy armour so they had to come up with a much more sophisticated way of fighting. Who says only the Asians could perform martial arts?

    Europa for the win! :D

  • practice equipment, even medieval knights used wood swords for training

  • wuhoh, 1:14 hes Catholic!

  • I liked the vid. Interesting use of the weapons too!

  • Woher habt ihr diese Rüstungen???
