I have come to quite like making shorts like this. I understand that their ability to transfer actually useful information are rather limited, but they do allow for quick videos to showcase things that are on the horizon. In this case, somewhere in 2024 I will be doing some more videos about armoured fencing, with all sorts of weapons and to do so, Mediev sent me a synthetic armour set by Audeo (www.mediev.com.... It's mostly very interesting as I have been using it so far to test some of my theories on early 16th century German Battle Sword in preparation for my workshop at the International Montante Symposium, as well as some sparring with all sorts of polearms. Expect to see this set more often in the future. #armoured #fight #hema #landsknecht #greatsword #halberd #sparring

I absolutely love synthetic armor because of low maintenance ❤ I'm all for putting squires and armor quartermaster out of jobs 🤣🤣🤣 On the real though, it helps us mercenaries upkeep our gear especially when our support crew is ourselves!

Yeah, that's really the biggest advantage so far. It's been so much easier to bring armour to training now.

I do really like the helmet, since it looks decent and has the mesh. I've personally seen several instances of sparring blades going through the eye slot on steel harness. Not doing that again.

Yeah, it's a Wukusi Cobra mask, and it goes well with this set. I took a couple of pollaxe hits to the head and it was pretty okay. :)

I want to get into armor but lack the funds, this seems like a good way to get a foot through the door and get used to fighting in armor.

I'm in two minds about synthetic armour. It looks great is easier to maintain and fight in, yet I still feel I prefer metal plate. I think it's just because metal is what was originally used. But I'm certainly not against it and see the merits.

@VirtualFechtschule Месяц назад
It's really no substitute for steel. It's great as a set you can lend to many different people. I'll have a halberd video up tomorrow where I used for that purpose exactly. I also like the ease of transport on a bicycle, being a Dutch guy. :P

I have been very tempted to get this Armour to get started with Harnischfechten - can you recommend it?
@VirtualFechtschule
@VirtualFechtschule 7 месяцев назад
Depends on a couple of factors. I don't think it's a substitute for steel armour. It has the mobility restriction of steel, but not the weight. Where this set shines (hehe) though, are some of the logistics factors associated with armour. Transporting a steel set is hard if you don't have a car and maintenance takes a lot of time. Getting dressed requires time and other people. With a synthetic set, all of these things are less of a problem. I can take this to an evening practice after work, on my bicycle and when I come home late I don't still need to oil everything.

Why dond you use a burgonet or something instead of that goofy fencer mask
@TheAdmiral8799
@TheAdmiral8799 6 месяцев назад
its no way it is "more protective"
@VirtualFechtschule
@VirtualFechtschule 6 месяцев назад
When dealing with thrusts to the face, it definitely is. A burgonet looks cooler, but it does leave gaps, so if you want an affordable solution to that problem, a fencing mask it is.

@TheAdmiral8799 5 месяцев назад
@@VirtualFechtschule true but cant you just make those holes (that the fencing mask has) on a piece in the eyelids too protect from thrusts

@VirtualFechtschule 5 месяцев назад
@@TheAdmiral8799 Yes. Mesh inside a helmet is a good idea. But getting a good steel helmet (especially with mesh built in in a sensible way) is expensive, which kinda goes against the whole idea of a synthetic armour set. I'm currently having a proper steel Landsknecht helmet made to go with my steel set, for which I'll also make a mesh insert, but that one is going to cost me about as much as this whole synthetic armour is.

Right now I'm still testing, but I get the impression it has utility. It will not be a substitute for steel armour, but it can be pretty great for club gear or people that would otherwise not be able to bring steel armour to training.

I have to cycle to class for instance, and with my steel set I have to really suffer for it. :p This is a bit more manageable.
