@The Eternal Anglo sca does help with alot of things though I've seen alot of guys do Hema and sca there are tons of interchangeable skills

2017-12-10 19:26:39 UTC  

Really cool concept but those guys lacked any form of drill

2017-12-10 22:19:25 UTC  

What is the sport/league that is more like fencing but with medieval swords?

2017-12-10 23:36:37 UTC  

Hmm.

2017-12-10 23:36:45 UTC  

I know Swordfish does a tournament

2017-12-10 23:36:56 UTC  

League? I dunno

2017-12-11 02:35:50 UTC  

Pretty sure that's Hema

2017-12-11 02:43:50 UTC

Full contact stick stick fighting

The irish used to have a stick fighting martial art, mostly because they don't have much iron on the island.

2017-12-14 17:48:39 UTC  

`Originally known as the Irish: bata, or stick, the name shillelagh is an Anglophone corruption (phonological adaptation) of the Irish sail éille and appears to have been associated with the name of the village and barony of Shillelagh, County Wicklow.[2][3] The shillelagh was originally used for settling disputes in a gentlemanly manner — like a duel with pistols or swords. Modern practitioners of bataireacht study the use of the shillelagh for self-defense and as a martial art. Of the practice, researcher J. W. Hurley writes:

Methods of shillelagh fighting have evolved over a period of thousands of years, from the spear, staff, axe and sword fighting of the Irish. There is some evidence which suggests that the use of Irish stick weapons may have evolved in a progression from a reliance on long spears and wattles, to shorter spears and wattles, to the shillelagh, alpeen, blackthorn (walking-stick) and short cudgel. By the 19th century Irish shillelagh-fighting had evolved into a practice which involved the use of three basic types of weapons, sticks which were long, medium or short in length.[4]`

💯 🍀 🥔

2017-12-14 18:28:24 UTC  

Irish HEMA.

2017-12-14 23:39:20 UTC  

Stick fighting with Hema techniques are superior

2017-12-15 00:38:04 UTC  

"Practical" If you don't carry a side-sword on you at all times you aren't white

2017-12-15 01:04:58 UTC  

I like the one with the morning star. Fucking sick.

2017-12-15 04:03:09 UTC  

@StrawberryArmada all techniques are interchangeable

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

2017-12-19 01:52:56 UTC  

That photo is fake.

2017-12-19 01:53:04 UTC  

Women don't dress like that anymore, silly

2017-12-28 06:51:30 UTC  

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.

2017-12-29 04:38:42 UTC  

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

2017-12-29 05:08:53 UTC  

I only spar with hammers and heavy maces

2017-12-29 05:17:53 UTC  

Decent stuff from lots of category

2017-12-29 05:19:19 UTC  

These guys make great rapiers

2018-01-03 00:03:19 UTC  

@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

2018-01-14 17:04:06 UTC  

This wiki collects primary source materials on European martial arts
