We worked on a similar sequence but using a modified Segno for Spada a due mani.
We were just talking about this tonight at practice. The importance of using the back hand to control the point of the partisan! Great video guys!
Brilliant play, I'll be trying this out with my club!
I love all your side sword videos! Such a great weapon without the following it deserves.
your movement makes me mesmerize for a while. beautiful
This is excellent! Something we'll be sure to incorporate in our movement drills :)
Super 🤗
It would be nice to have subtitles as he touch each guard and maybe an illustration from the source on each.
I made my own, but I really like this one and will shamelessly use it! Good job!
Bravo!
Oh.. I have so much difficulties to understand tramazzone
Very smooth! What a cool set of techniques to have mastered. Also, excellent use of the banner to hide the camera's reflection! Very clever!
Thank you very much!
Just a thought as a native speaker: in Italian, especially XV cent. one, "levata" does not always translate to "elevated". In this case, it would probably be "taken away/retracted". Cheers!
Thank you, I was unaware. This is good information!
I enjoy reading the plays as you demonstrate in the videos. Thanks!
Glad you enjoy it!
That's a really interesting play, with unusual actions ! (fendente to the foot, incredible !)
Glad you liked it!
Awesome thank you!
I wish I could move to St. Louis to be able to attend these classes
Thanks for dropping this Gem. Been a fan of Terry O’Neil since my dad used to watch the Guvnor. But I didn’t know all this info. I’m a karate guy from born in the 70’s so this is so cool to listen to.
What kind of sword is used for this video? Who is the manufacturer? Thank you!
Arms and Armor, customized Montante
@@KenHardingswordplay Thank you, Ken! I'm fascinated!
@@KenHardingswordplay I hope, one day, I will visit your school.
Excellent!!! Very good 👍🏻
Thank you! Cheers!
Very elegant movements. The first cut when you draw the sword should be a falso tondo riverso, not a dritto tondo riverso though.
Thank you. The English translation we are working from, by Jherek Swanger, says: "extend your arm and perform a falso and a riverso squalembro, *OR* do two riversi, the first one tondo and the second one squalembro" (I perform the second option). Are you saying that this is not translated correctly?
Bravo!
Awesome
Was buckler a choice, or the standard?
It was the standard in this case.
Wow, this is excellent!!
Nice! Wouldn't you count parries on the outside as core skill? will it be covered in another video?
Très beaux mouvements!! Intéressant à mettre en application lors d'un sparring.
I loved the spear throw at the end.
I just came across this video and immediately loved your interpretations and teaching style. Thank you for posting this video, I'll have to come back and watch more!
Ken, thanks to your videos, we practice 94-100 for nearly every class. It's great to see this continue to evolve. We are enjoying exploring spada solo as well. Kind regards and many thanks!
That first bout/two exchanges were excellent, and the disarm was quite amusing. I am looking to get into this type of sword myself, though am finding relatively few sources on it. In particular, I am surprised to see almost total homogeneity in having globular pommels with the occasional scent-stopper. Having practiced with them a decent bit now, do you think this is for functional reasons? Why might other pommels-eg wheel, fishtail-be or not be used on this type of sword?
Where does the "walking in guards" sequence come from (in terms of source material)?
From Giovanni dall' Agocchie's 1572 book.
Thanks.
Extremely erotic :D
that is awesome! cheers guys
