When you absolutely, positively need to make sure people maintain six feet of distance from you, accept no substitutes.
This is brilliant! A Plague Doctor with a Montante is something I imagine happening in Darkest Dungeon. Beautiful execution!
Something about the sword and the outfit just fits together 😁
I just love the idea of a plague doctor going around cleansing the plague while carrying around a big sword
Glad you like it 😁
If you wanna be more grim you could say the montante is the cure
"I am the cure" 🐧
@@Vultimo very "Berserk" style. I can see Guts bumping into you at some point in the series. (he kinda does with Mozgus, but the apostle is using a catch collar)
I seriously love this. I want to see this concept as a character in a show, movie, or game. Seriously, we have warrior-poets, warrior-monks, warrior-scholars, and warrior-philosophers in pop culture, why not warrior doctors?
Consider this, great swords were generally seen as ideal weapons for one to use to fend off multiple opponents, as in the case of bodyguards. Now imagine a late Renaissance order of combat-medics who swear oaths to no one king or country, say a late period offshoot of the Knights Hospitalers, or something similar in a fantasy world. The swear oaths to retrieve and rescue the wounded on battlefield, no matter the side they are in, and to ensure the Dead recieve proper last rites. They are dedicated to protecting their wards under their care from those who would torture or kill the wounded, or desecrate the bodies of the Dead, even to their own deaths if need be. Like a Renaissance Red Cross spec ops team.
Wow, thanks for your enthusiastic comment! I think I might have some ideas for a new D&D character now 😁🗡💉
Hey man. I actually fucking love this. Thanks for the inspiration, man. I'm gonna make a Death Knight Creed of some nature using this concept. It's just what I'm looking for.
Or a benevolent form of Trauma Team from Cyberpunk 2077 but set in the Renaissance.
As someone who does montante themselves (Godhino's rules), I must say, I came for the meme, and stayed for the beautiful flow.
Very nicely executed, the smoothness was on point and the couching of the sword looked super natural (I always struggle with it :p).
Bravo!
Thanks! Yes, it seems just about anything involving a plague doctor outfit is highly memeable. With couching do you mean retracting the sword with the point facing the opponent?
@@Vultimo yes! My instructor always calls it ‘cradling the sword like a sharp baby’ :p
When u r trying to keep away from plague infected guys 😂
Very nice! This is pretty amusing, including the poor TP's fate at the end. Did you have to adapt your motions to that beak? Also, I hope you stuffed the beak with sweet smelling herbs and the like to be historically accurate! You know, in accordance to miasmatic theory of disease that was popular at the time. ;P
Thanks! For the most part, the beak didn't restrict my movement too much; overhead techniques were a bit tricky, though, and sometimes I would bump my arms against the beak and shift it around (not recorded).
The one thing I did notice, however, was the restricted airflow into the mask which has only a few holes poked into the underside of the beak. Also, it got quite hot under the multiple layers of fabric 😅
I did indeed put some lavender inside the beak to overcome the smell of the synthetic leather analog but took it out during filming. I find it funny that one plague doctor allegedly complained that the suit design is only capable of keeping fleas out which, unbeknownst to him, were the actual transmitters of the plague.
A good doctor understands the importance of preventative measures.
Great form and wait to keep the flow, cleanse the plague you great birdy
Aye, I shall 🗡️🐧
@@Vultimo sorry i meant way to keep the flow however you say it sorry english isn’t the best lol
Keeping social distance the hema way
"i know im a healer but..."
Hehe, a healer's gotta defend himself! 😎🗡
That's some big beak energy!
Yeah 🐧😁
Me in the middle of a plague-denier demonstration
Blade & Sorcery music is always epic
When 049 sees the pestilence in everyone
Better version of the idiom at the start: "An apple a day...will keep anyone away if you throw it hard enough"
“Where do you see yourself in 5 years?”
"The cure for plague comes in many different blade types"
Good stuff as usual! Social distancing at its best. Have you tested the blade in any partner exercises? How does it bind? Im looking at how/where it bends sometimes when you swing it and getting worried about how mine will work when practicing with partner (when i will finally get it).
Thank you! This is a sharp blade, so I haven't tested it in partner exercises, I can't tell you much about the binding behavior. The blade is however relatively stiff, especially in the lower third, can't tell how that would transfer to binding, though.
@@Vultimo Indeed! I forgot about that. Thanks for the reply though. Where does The blade start to bend from if you grip it from the handle and from the tip of the blade? If you dont mind checking.
@@3skoronimus The blade flex when held statically might be visible in my "Montante Multicuts" video, at the end I do a close up and general dynamics display of the blade. I don't have it at hand right now, but I would estimate the blade sag when held horizontally to about 15 cm. The sagging is comparatively minor considering the blade length.
@@Vultimo Alright, thanks again! Ill go and look the videos again. My sword(s) should be arriving during June, so it might not be long anymore!
Well even back in the 17th century I think that’d be terrifying.
It's a really great video. May I know what manual you used to train with?
I NEED someone to make plague doctor styled armor
this is how I feel :D
Your friend is dead... and vultimo is not! cause vultimo had a plague mask... and a big fucking sword!
Sandror clegane!
Legends say the doctor still swinging his montante to this day
That is tooo slow, when i do it i prefer circular swings, whilst you strike one the other could come behind you.
You have to be QUICK!

Look at that man's yard. There is green grass everywhere. Then there's the circle of murdered grass in the center from practicing montante.
I love the beauty in the rythm of the blade. Congratulations
Thank you 🙋🏼♂️
Ready to fix someone's migraine, doc?
Sure! You can't have a migraine if you don't have a head, can you? 🗡😜
....👍😀
This music matches with this video perfectly and i cant imagine any other music that would fi t this
Ok, so that is terrifyingly awesome.
My Healing, its my Sword
I'm just loving it 👍
This is the coolest Montante Video i have ever Seen
Really good! Well done.
Thanks!
pretty nice movements but why you hold your left hand above the pommel and not the pommel itself hand as it is should be?
Hi! I'm glad you ask, because this is actually a very interesting topic!
One reason why I don't hold the sword by the pommel, using the entire length of the grip, is because of reach. Imagine holding a staff, pointing the tip directly in front of you, with both hands spaced widely apart, with your offhand exactly at the end of the staff. Now fully extend both arms, as this is the most stable stable arm structure. You'll notice that the tip of the staff raises higher into the air the more you move both hands apart, which shortenes the maximum reach of your staff. A shorter reach also means more shallow cuts (at a larger angle) and the long handle might also invite you to adapt a "push-pull" motion to cut, rather than cutting by rotating the rigid structure that your arms form and powering it with your core. You could compensate this by bending your offhand elbow, which would however result in a "chicken wing" bend in that one elbow which sacrifices structure and stability. If you then move your hands closer together (i.e. the offhand grips higher than the pommel), you'll find that your reach with arms fully extended, gradually increases and cuts become less shallow.
Here's a few videos by some HEMA instructors demonstrating this point:
(Montante Nino): ua-cam.com/video/ca0NBLDtRjU/v-deo.html
(Mike Edelson): ua-cam.com/video/eYUiiTNKjjY/v-deo.html
You can also find more information about this topic in Mike Edelson's book on "Cutting with the Medieval Sword", p.36, p.72.
Another reason why I don't grip the pommel on this large sword is that it's harder to do the transitional rotations of the sword close to the body when the hands are far apart. If the handle is very long and you try to do some tight, forearm powered rotations, you'll find that the offhand that grips the pommel collides with the main hand elbow, restricting the mobility you'd want with a large sword in situations such as being confined in a tight alley, as described by 16th C. fencing master Godinho.
TL,DR: hands closer = more reach, more mobility

Amazingly well done.
Thank you!
This is solo...where is partner?
Montante/Spadone is most commonly practiced solo, since the techniques in general aren't meant to directly interact with one single opponent but rather to fill a lot of space around you with a sharp moving blade to keep multiple opponents at bay. Of course there are also partner techniques but that was not the focus of the video.
That is a spadone, not a montante
This is not a spadone, but a reproduction of a spadone 😛
Nice one :) what technique you use? Figueyredo?
Thanks! My techniques are inspired by Godinho and Figueyredo, through the interpretation of guys like Ton Puey, Emil Andersson (Montantero) and the Drey Wunder crew who I had the opportunity to meet at the International Montante Symposium 2018 hosted by Drey Wunder. Other than that, I try movements that feel natural to a large sword and that allow to keep the momentum going :)
@@Vultimo Is that an old portuguese technique with sword ?
Yes, those are Portuguese and Spanish sources 😉
The plague doesn't stand a chance now!
Love the form, and the mask!
Question on the montante - do you do any tatami or other target cutting with it? I'm looking for a sharp montante but don't actually know anyone who owns one, so I can't get recommendations. Would you recommend this to others?
Ok, I should have checked the rest of your channel before asking. I see you do cutting - do you love it?
@@MatthewRoche Hi, yes, I really like the sharp montante, it cuts really well! The factory edge is very good, without any secondly bevel, except for a mirror polish just on the edge, which further increases the cutting capability. I'd definitely buy this one again and can only recommend it! 😉
@@Vultimo Thank you! I'll email HEMA Supplies this morning to see if I can order one in my size. ;-)
so cool
Thank you 😊
but why
why not
@@Vultimo no, why
Cooles Zeug
Danke :)
