NICE ILLUSTRATION OF POSSIBLE FOLLOW-UP MOVES, FROM THE STARTING GUARD POSTION CHOSEN!! IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW THEY SAY YOU FINISHED WRONG!! I HAVE EMOTIONAL FAITH & LOGICAL BELIEF, THAT YOU CAN FIGHT YOUR WAY OUT OF ANY SITUATION, INCLUDING THE FINAL STANCE POSITION!!! ¡¡GOD KEEP BLESSING ...MILD MANNERED PROFESSOR OF DEATH!!!
Turns out that straight swords are less efficient than bullets at transferring the force of a thrust. Which is why dedicated anti-RenaissanceFair men just pull out the 9 and start blasting. (Before anybody decides to take this too seriously, good video man. I just felt like being silly)
Germans back then were a serious force and one of the peak societies, in my opinion as an Italian/german. (If you exclude the NS regime, that shit was efficient but f‘d up, let’s not have that evil shit again) And today Germans don’t even give a shit about their daughters and women and rather see them groupra….ed in the news than to stand up for themselves 🤷🏼♂️
Lately I've been working on learning to work with 2 smaller knives. One of my problems was holding my knife blade horizontal. I want to to go between ribs repeatedly. So I'm working on how to hold a knife vertically. This is a backup to a broken dropped or out of ammo handgun. I can't think of a better secondary weapon
I've worked with a long blade with a long handle. Keeping your hand forward and one on the back of the grip with a foot forward gives the appearance of retreat. But what it gives me is a hopefully fatal thrust ending in an upward side or downward swing as someone mentioned footwork is crucial for the thrust much farther forward than looks possible
That sucks, the rapier is the only sword I have but am looking at that 82 WW1 saber you reviewed, that looks really nice, do they make affordable functional repros? I imagine an original is over $1000 in todays market.
I've been noticing a frustrating trend where people who aren't involved in an activity try to condescendingly tell people who are involved how to do their activity and what they're doing "wrong". Seen it in lots of sword fighting and other martial arts groups, but also things like cooking or writing or any other number of hobbies. When I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't try to give advice (at least not to people who do).
But what curved swords give is a 'torque', right at the tip, as the force is coming at an angle. And because most armors are optimized for 'head-on' attacks, they may actually fail faster with curved blades.
Longer sword means more room more room means more time more time means more movement More movement means more power More power can require the user to wind up and bring the sword behind themselves
Lol the difference is that in dark souls you are starting at the same strength and stats of a normal person and leveling up to the stats of legendary human abilities and further.
Yeah but you have to take into account that the zombie will be decomposed quite a lot, so unless you’re fighting someone who just turned, the only real problem is the maintenance.
