yeah like i said im more kali lol, but yeah for simulating sword fighting yeah a guard like thats is good
so if you suck youre ginna get ganked
unless you from china and you have cut little guards
You'd have to be very tiny, lu, otherwise your hand ain't fitting in that with the gauntlet on
thats the point
you dont need a gauntlet
if you have one of those
or if you have a guntlet
you dont need one of those
Fuck you, you're using a gauntlet
ive never used a gauntlet tho
ive used wristguards
combined with one of those cup hilts
works well enough
So uh
You guys do hema+
Yall niggas gay
Time for atheism posting
Don't think a gauntlet will fit in basket or cup hilt
historically if ur in full platemail you are probably not using a rapier though so guantlet doesnt really make sense too much with a sword
sadly none in my area as far as I know
I KNOW THAT GOD EXISTS
That's not protective enough. When dealing with improvised weapons, you cannot predict where they will hit
And any exposed skin is vulnerable to whatever they splash you with
if youre using a cup hilt
ONE TIME I ALMOST DROWNED AND GOD SAVED ME
youre gonna use one of these
Rapier is a civilian weapon would be impractical against armored enemies
armoured enemies virtually didnt exist by that point
with the exception of the very popular curaiss
armour had died out by then
I WAS ABOUT TO DROWN AND GOD GAVE ME THE SPONTANEOUS ABILITY TO SWIM
and a curaiss leaves a bunch of arteries and all your limbs exposed
rapiers were too good for this world
yeah but most civies won't be wearing a curaiss on the streets
