Love the video, but you need to put a warning that no matter what technique you use, you WILL get cut in a knife fight. A lot of the moves I seen here, when put into actual practice leaves a huge probability of getting a finger or two cut off or impaling your hand trying to catch your opponents arm Mid attack.
These guys have practiced a lot and have most excellent targeting skills. Either one will have the most tremendous advantage over ninety percent of the population. Way to go!
You always, always reverse grip a knife with no guard. This is the most correct way of using tactical knives with no guard across all of history to the modern age. Because the only thing keeping you from gashing your own palm and not getting the most out of your stabs is your thumb and you need the reverse grip to make it work. As with the bullock knife and dirk, reverse grip is the absolute best method.
@@RavensOfAsgard :) You too. I was born above canyon (Iš) and spent most of my childhood in it. That's why I became detectorist. We also have some forest there. But upstream. When we meet, I wish we could shake hands. As a sing of friendship. All the best in the future.
Yes, this is just speculation on other short bladed martial arts and manuscript images for dagger technique. Other than the Islandic sagas there are no descriptions about how the weapons were used in the Viking age. Stay safe Nickolay
Love the video. My issue with the seax is that many just have smooth wooden handles, no guards to keep the hand from slipping up the blade if you hit bone. Is there a way to prevent this? Clearly they worked without a guard back in the day or else they would have put a guard on them.
Depends on the kind of combat. And there are also lot of weapons without crossguard, like shashka, axe, spear, we are training with. The guard is there to keep your hand from sliding onto your own blade. And to keep your opponents blade from sliding onto your hand. So if you just slash you cannot hit a bone in that manner. If you use ur seax with a shield your hand is always covered with shield and you dont need guard there. You can also stab with so called reverse grip with your thumb on the end of the handle that prevent it from slinding off, or with both hands. Further on, is a seax weapon of war or just a tool used in battle? Here you have a video about swords with no hand guard: /NvqvrCM9akg Stay safe.
Start with coarse grit sandpaper, whetstone or file. Hold knife at 22 degrees angle. Apply moderate pressure sliding forward or circling whetstone. Switch to fine grit. I dont recomend you to use power tools and remember; practice makes perfect. Just dont rush it. Check some video tutorials first.

Thank you Tristin. Like you said, you will get cut in a knife fight if not worst, so avoid it at all cost. Do not engage in.
Theres 2 people in a knife fight, one that goes to the hospital and the other that goes to the morgue
These guys have practiced a lot and have most excellent targeting skills. Either one will have the most tremendous advantage over ninety percent of the population. Way to go!
Thank you very much. It is true, practice makes perfect. Trough practice and repetition you aquire accuracy.
Stay safe Black Bear.
you should put a disclaimer that this a bit of fun and not any technique that works with knifes.
@@markuslihtte8733 dont respond to a 2 year old comment negatively because it's 2 fucking years old and he's right.
I'll respond and say that all of those are fairly common techniques in knife systems
@@giantdad2799 Ah, the ultimate authority on knife technique has entered the fray.
Honestly that should just be common sense
those knifes are wicked looking and you are very good with them . liked this video hope to see more soon.
I appreciate ur opinion
"That's not a knife…. THAT's a knife."
Interesting choreagraphy. Never thought of a war seax as a reverse grip knife.
Thx.
Here are some techniques for slashing, stabbing and disarming an opponent.

@@flyboymike111357 Yes, when I said war seax, I mean seax's that actually have guards. I have a personal War Seax and my wife has a utility one.
Very well done!
hvala ti borac

Спасибо, удачи.

you dont have to worry as long as you dont come looking for our buried hoards of silver with your metal detecting gear😉

@@GORGINIOUScrniExploring we sure will, looking forward to meeting you
That Seax you made is fantastic!
Thank you Siya.
Stay safe.
do you have any sources or is this just speculation based on other short bladed martial arts?

Is this a Norse form of martial arts? Looks very Krav Maga.
There is no official Norse form of martial arts. Just two guys training.
@@RavensOfAsgard bad ass dude!
Thx Gruggs.

Viking Aikido.....?
No, actually quite the opposite...
I bought a halfsharp seax how do I sharpen it?
