8 років томуTheir next fight: • HEMA instructors fight...
Impressive fighting skills at work. There is a reason why these guys teach historical swordsmanship.
This match took place at the Blood & Iron historical martial arts school in New Westminster, BC, Canada. Richard Marsden, co-founder and principal instructor of the Phoenix Society of Historical Swordsmanship, came for a visit to give two seminars, one on Fiore's longsword and another on Polish saber fencing. After the instruction he sparred with Lee Smith, co-founder and principal instructor of Blood & Iron.

Being a martial artist and always rolling my eyes when someone says "You can disarm a knife from an attacker", this footage proves you need to be Matrix level reflexes from defending yourself from a sword, mind you it's bigger than a knife, heavier to boot and expert practitioners narrowly avoid the barely predictable slashes. Now try doing that with something smaller, easier to hide, faster to deploy and attack with, yeah there's no way a person can disarm a knife attack. It great seeing each practitioner calling out a proper blow. Allows both parties to learn and grow.
@spicketspaghet7773 2 роки тому
The best defense against a knife is not being within knife distance. Fiore has a *FEW* grabs against dagger but even they're known as a sorry-chance of working, plus, Fiore is all about joint locks and breaks. If you grab their arm you might as well break it...if you've not died of blood loss from the 4 stabs your enemy has already landed.
@SirConto Рік тому
Sword seems like a strange comparison though. I'd much prefer my chances against a knife than a sword. A sword moves way faster than any knife. A tiny flick of the wrist can make the sword tip move extremely quickly and unpredictably. And all the while, the swordman is at a distance out of your reach. A knife moves at the speed of the hand and has shorter range. Now to be sure, I understand perfectly that my chances against a knife are next to nill as well, but there's the ever so slim chance you might get a chance to grap the knife attacker's hand and get into some kind of grappling, especially if he's just some guy that just picked up a knife and doesn't know what he's doing. And there have been rare cases of people surviving knife attacks like that.
@dethhollow Рік тому
The thing is, you can stop a knife, right? It's basically the same as catching a punch. But if you knew someone was going to punch you would you REALLY risk getting hit on your ability to grab their fist out of the air or something? PROBABLY NOT. It's doable, but it's just so hard that you'd never actually want to do it unless it's an absolute last resort. The best defense against any knife attack will always be to just run the fuck away and hope you run into someone that can help you deal with the madman chasing you with a fucking knife!

Greatest artist who ever lived You can be a sheep and just automatically accept what a teacher says as Law, but I’m certainly not. Some Teachers are opinionated, remember people taught at a young age about thanksgiving, but never what occurred after? Remember that there’s some teachers saying global warming is a farce, and others not? So which one is right, I guess both then, since all teachers are right about everything, right?!?! Not to mention, college professors in states like California are mostly liberal, and preach socialism is the best economic systems and other ideas of that nature. When there’s no way of knowing that for sure... I agree, you should believe your teacher, but it doesn’t mean every teacher is right about everything they say. It’s okay to ask yourself questions or heaven forbid, do a little research...
