Wear your armor 24/7 so you can properly adjust.

That photo is fake.

Women don't dress like that anymore, silly

Can anyone recommend a good website for purchasing well made sturdy renaissance era swords? I'm a fencer looking for a good side sword or rapier.

In one of those videos, a guy was swinging a fuggin hammer. Take one to the head and you'll die bro

I only spar with hammers and heavy maces

These guys make great rapiers

@Deleted User REALLY delayed response, but the combat looks really cool. There's just no military drill. They'd do much better with some line discipline

Rapier and dagger is cooler but longsword is nice too

If anyone is interested in HEMA and would like to see it first hand you can find an event near you here.

@StrawberryArmada do they have a search feature or do I just scroll?

I don't believe they do, but you can use the "find on page" function to lookup your area

Please see the following post from @Warren H in <#388498895316975618>

Does anyone know of a brand or company that sells swords for movie props? Working on a project where I will need some and if possible I'd like for them to look real and not heavy.

Thought you guys might be able to help

@StrawberryArmada

Something similar to this.

Honestly I've only ever dealt in useable swords

I can probably check if some armories I know of do props

That'd be awesome thanks @StrawberryArmada
