Their next fight: • HEMA instructors fight...
Impressive fighting skills at work. There is a reason why these guys teach historical swordsmanship.
This match took place at the Blood & Iron historical martial arts school in New Westminster, BC, Canada. Richard Marsden, co-founder and principal instructor of the Phoenix Society of Historical Swordsmanship, came for a visit to give two seminars, one on Fiore's longsword and another on Polish saber fencing. After the instruction he sparred with Lee Smith, co-founder and principal instructor of Blood & Iron.

YOU DENY YOUR WEAPON ITS PURPOSE
“Just getting started!”
Being a martial artist and always rolling my eyes when someone says "You can disarm a knife from an attacker", this footage proves you need to be Matrix level reflexes from defending yourself from a sword, mind you it's bigger than a knife, heavier to boot and expert practitioners narrowly avoid the barely predictable slashes. Now try doing that with something smaller, easier to hide, faster to deploy and attack with, yeah there's no way a person can disarm a knife attack. It great seeing each practitioner calling out a proper blow. Allows both parties to learn and grow.
The best defense against a knife is not being within knife distance. Fiore has a *FEW* grabs against dagger but even they're known as a sorry-chance of working, plus, Fiore is all about joint locks and breaks. If you grab their arm you might as well break it...if you've not died of blood loss from the 4 stabs your enemy has already landed.
Sword seems like a strange comparison though. I'd much prefer my chances against a knife than a sword. A sword moves way faster than any knife. A tiny flick of the wrist can make the sword tip move extremely quickly and unpredictably. And all the while, the swordman is at a distance out of your reach. A knife moves at the speed of the hand and has shorter range. Now to be sure, I understand perfectly that my chances against a knife are next to nill as well, but there's the ever so slim chance you might get a chance to grap the knife attacker's hand and get into some kind of grappling, especially if he's just some guy that just picked up a knife and doesn't know what he's doing. And there have been rare cases of people surviving knife attacks like that.
The thing is, you can stop a knife, right? It's basically the same as catching a punch. But if you knew someone was going to punch you would you REALLY risk getting hit on your ability to grab their fist out of the air or something? PROBABLY NOT. It's doable, but it's just so hard that you'd never actually want to do it unless it's an absolute last resort. The best defense against any knife attack will always be to just run the fuck away and hope you run into someone that can help you deal with the madman chasing you with a fucking knife!

Greatest artist who ever lived You can be a sheep and just automatically accept what a teacher says as Law, but I’m certainly not. Some Teachers are opinionated, remember people taught at a young age about thanksgiving, but never what occurred after? Remember that there’s some teachers saying global warming is a farce, and others not? So which one is right, I guess both then, since all teachers are right about everything, right?!?! Not to mention, college professors in states like California are mostly liberal, and preach socialism is the best economic systems and other ideas of that nature. When there’s no way of knowing that for sure... I agree, you should believe your teacher, but it doesn’t mean every teacher is right about everything they say. It’s okay to ask yourself questions or heaven forbid, do a little research...

Starting to realize how quickly a real sword fight would end.
Yeah, imagine back in the day how it was for these foot soldiers fighting in all these conquests and battles. One wrong move, get unlucky once and you're a goner. I'm glad I wasn't born back then.
No actually . Its would not end up in this fast . Because usually people put on armor to their arm, torso and head . So cuts like those in the video would not kill . Especially if its a steel plate armor . Average conquest usually last minimum of 3 hours . Depending on the equipment and skill mostly
@@muhammadamirun3777 Sounds to me like you don't have a fucking clue what you are talking about, have you ever been cut by a sword? No. So shut the fuck up.
@@muhammadamirun3777 well not really, and it depends upon the place and time period of the world. if you're talking the middle ages, only nobles and land owners would have been knights while the peasants that would have been mass recruited for the war (take for example the english in the hundreds year war) would be wearing none to little armor. most of the time people in armor would die because their horses died, and they couldn't get up. it was not fast.

Question! SO im really new to sword fighting and fencing. I know that fencing has 3 categories; Foil, Epee, and Saber. What seperates Olympic "saber fencing" and "saber sparring" showin in this video? Thanks!
So this is a demonstration of what is called HEMA, historical European martial arts. It has very little to do with Olympic/FIE style fencing. It is still fencing since fencing is, if you look at the definition, sport fighting with swords. There is a bit of friction between the two groups, but anyone with any sense appreciates each for what it is.

Without KZhead recommendations, I definitely wouldn't be where I am today.
True
I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing
Ah yes I would have been studying now if not for KZhead recommendations...

@@jandavesalamat2663 wow your pfp is a bootleg version of mine.
The algorithm has gifted me your masterpiece :D
i'm curious, in past war (where some country still fight with sword, especially west/europe country) do they movement look similiar like this?
if they were using sabers yes
Depends weapon and period of time. The most used weapon in war were spear - like weapons , lower cost , high efficiency. As time progressed we got better at making Armor so around 15-16th century you see full plate against which Swords are mostly ineffective, later we see gunpowder and muskets, armor doesn't do anything against bullets only slows you down, we see more weapons like Sabres or Long poking/dueling swords , like rapiers. Even at that time you see Bayonets being put at the front of the gun to imitate a spear.
KZhead video with no clickbait title and thumbnail. Also no 1 minute intro where a guy screams at a camera? What is this? 2006?
This is quality content, a rare thing to find these days
Dániel Kalocsai oh wowed sure did love 2006 and all those unregistered hypercams and this is Sparta memes
Glad you liked it!
Richard Marsden, wow, since your reply is so fresh, I just want to say I love the sparring videos featuring you, keep it up fam.
Good comment. I have now liked, subscribed, followed you on twitter and am donating to your patreon.
I love how aggressive they got around the end and started attacking more while still defending.
@Hans Mustermann English please? "They not use" "Have a armor" "That fight not look". If your going to say something please use correct grammar lmao
@@ashuyl Who said english is his mother language? You r 2 steps behind him. Na próxima vez que quiser bancar o professor de inglês, tente aprende a lingua dele
Hans Mustermann Ihr Deutsch scheint aber auch nicht gerade fehlerfrei zu sein. Aber was soll‘s, jeder macht mal Fehler, besonders wenn man wütend ist. Bezüglich ihrer Kritik an der Kampftechnik, polnische Säbel sind für den Kampf ohne Rüstung ausgelegt, und insbesondere die Schnitte aus dem Handgelenk können auf ungerüsteten Körperteilen schnell und unerwartet schwere Verletzungen verursachen.
@Hans Mustermann idk mate i think the power is from the sword elasticity
@Hans Mustermann They always aim for the vital organ like head, Wrist, and neck. 0:26 and in this shot we can see the elasticity do the work
This is one of the videos that convinced me to get into HEMA about 5 years ago.
i love the way he swung his saber in 2:55 this simple thing makes things better
