The new jacket arrived, and it feels like a very light brigandine harness.
Thank you to my friends that got it for me as a surprise present. I don't know why you would do such a thing for me, but I am touched all the more because of it. I'm sorry Superior Fencing ruined the surprise, but it in no way lessened the sentiment.
It's not a perfect design (a little snugger than could be, the forearms have nothing for protection apart from the rigid plastic vambraces), but it's so very good to wear, and any deficiency in protection is of the kind that can be easily remedied. The overall range of protection and comfort is excellent.
It feels like a knightly harness. Not quite as bulky and heavy, I know, but almost. It feels good.
I am full of emotions composing this post, and I am not good at expressing them sufficiently because I have not had a very personal item gifted to me this way before, so I will express what I can with a quote to finish.
And ever, says Mallory, Sir Lancelot wept, as he had been a child that had been beaten.
Occasionally, I do fuck up, and just get stabbed in my face. ⚜️
[ANALYSIS: both myself and my instructor are in boar's tooth guard, I raise the poleaxe to try and intimidate him, he does not buy it. I bring the axe back down to try and bear down on his axe, he voids by thrusting up and stabbing me in the face.]
How the fun with Poleaxes went before the ash staves broke. ⚜️
