-------------------
The Zaporizhia Cossacks became famous for their relentless campaigns, demonstrating a high level of military strategy and great personal skill in battle. Before entering the battlefield, a Zaporizhia man always prepared carefully, relying first of all on his ability to skillfully wield a weapon.
It never happened that the Zaporizhzhya army threw away their swords, sabers or spears to fight without using them. This approach of the predecessors was preserved in the descendants of the Zaporozhians, including the Kuban Cossacks, who reproduced, developed and applied the martial art until World War II.
At the same time, as a result of technological progress, the main element of the specific military skill of the Cossacks became the possession of cold weapons, such as saber-checkers and pike-bayonet. A similar development was observed in Europe (for example, fencing with rapiers, sabers, etc.) and Asia (for example, the Japanese art of fighting with swords "Kendo").
