I would comment on their mistakes and poor swordsmanship, but I'm not a fencer.

ROFL, what happened to the Knight in the second one...kinda reminds me of the gladiator in Life of Brian.

The "knight" in the video wasn't much of a European medieval martial artist, that's for sure.
European fighting methods are covered in depth here-

I don't know but it looks like something I would have fun doing.:rock:

A friend of mine is heading for Britain next month for a Hastings reenactment. He's relatively poor so he has to be one of the Saxons.

Follow his link "The Next Big One", for pictures of his period armour and the recent U.S. reenactment.

The "Samurai" wasn't all that skilled either......too many false strikes and not enough thought was played out in his moves.

(I studied Japanese swordsmanship for awhile as a hobby).

What is the "grow up" thing you mentioned? I never tried it. Is it fun?
