      Controlled and clean yeah, but there's no effort, I would have stomped them while they pu$$y foot around.
      These two have obviously never fought in a real fight.
      Weapon or not, they need to show some guts, aggression and control wins fights.
      I'll bet this is more like how nobles fight, they obviously understand swordsmanship but don't have what it takes to actually put it to use.

    Federico, after watching it again I can really tell that your Fiore is best suited for tall fighters. While your partner being more compact, totally uses the wall of steel of the German system to just move in safely and oppress you. You reach out more and he tanks more. Your height difference really highlight the styles and their differences.

  • @ianalexander6977
    @ianalexander6977 5 років тому +22

    It’s interesting. In the previous video there were some comments about Kieth being more Meyer than pure Liectenauer. There were also criticisms about not using padding because it meant those Meyer stances like Zornhut weren’t being used because they’re for powering through an opponent, which obviously you can’t do without padding.
    Add the padding in and the Zornhut’s disappear and Kieth looks a lot less Meyer!

    Great show from the both of you. I've watched the original countless times as it is a very fine example of the ART of longsword fencing as opposed to a tournament setting. I practice Liechtenauer's tradition under a very good and thorough instructor and I believe that traditional duelling would have looked more like the examples in your two Fiore vs Liechtenauer videos. Awesome job.

      Sportification of an art of killing takes away the soul from it....its a point game, speed and certain victory strikes are key, and a feder isn't really made to bind but more to beat and enter.
      On the other hand, its hard to stay in control using traditional techniques are they are made to be lethal or really painful targets....needs real proper padings to be safe at full speed with meatier swords. Even a Hanwei hurts like a b.... at full speed !

    9:06 that exchange looks like something out of Joachim Meyer's longsword. We practice mixed german longsword in our club, we have Lichtenaur, Meyer, and Ringeck. And im just going to say what i love about each style: Meyer has the best flow, the cuts and transitions just run beautifully, Ringeck's simplicity and movement is top notch quality, its a full body exercise, and Lichtenaur is just disciplined strokes, polished and tactical, no wasted swings. i dont know a whole lot about italian longsword, i just know that the names of things are hard as fuck to remember, and a lack of thumb grip action going on, also as far as i can tell it seems to be more free flowing than the german styles.

No hits on head, neck, genitais, or women breasts. 2 life points. Each arm ir leg counts as 1 point, and If they are hit we can't use them. The leg rule hás variations from group to group. Chest or back 2 points. And we train being better at it.
