Re: long sword exercises

There really isn't a place for it in anything but a film, and most of us would appreciate seeing it fade out of hollywood...but it's not going to happen. You're right; it does open you up to an easy counter, as well as provide way too many opportunities for error on the part of the user; losing the...

Re: long sword exercises

The Matt Galas flow drills are a lot of fun. I just started showing the new guys in class those. They really give you a good idea of how to keep the sword in motion.

Re: For those dealing with this latest storm!!

It's looking to be a cold one folks so stay warm and safe. I'm going out to fill my growlers around noon and I'll be smoking a pipe and lifting a pint when the worst of it hits.

Re: Pictures of my full outfit.

I like what you've done on all counts. One question, you appear to be right handed by belting your sword on the left hip, however your arrows are over your left shoulder indicating a left hand draw or is this just for the picture ? Once again I'm very impressed with all you've done. You caught that...

Re: MRL Deal of the day

I urge anyone that's on the shelf to buy this sword. The price is fantastic for what is IMO the best windlass sword ever made. With just a minimal amount of elbow grease you can have a well built and great handling sword that will be able to hold its own against much more expensive swords.
