I need some help identifying the book where these came from. The illustrations are pretty sweet! EDIT: it's "The Martial Arts of Medieval Europe by Ryuta Osada" 中世ヨーロッパの武術 (by 長田 龍太) https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/%E9%95%B7%E7%94%B0-%E9%BE%8D%E5%A4%AA/e/B08JVK5R9W/ref=dp_byline_cont_book_1

I don't know what it is about fencing sword and buckler but I feel so AMPED when I'm holding them. Longsword gives hero vibes and rapier makes me feel like a dastardly noble but with an arming sword I got that shit ON ME let's FUCKIN GO I'm just a man at arms or a guard but I AM READY FOR YOU

A lot of people un this days is publishing solo drills. Which is cool, but sometimes if a solo drill is executed at an exaggerated speed, without taking the time needed to complete every action, it ends up being useless. Even if the goal is to showcase one persons skill, a series of flat-cuts is quite ugly to see. So when you are performing your solo drills or Kata or Assalti etc. Take the time to complete every single action. Focus on the things you can train with this tool: Proper form, Edge alignment, hand-body-feet coordination and Precision. The speed comes by itself, there is no need to rush, it only creates problems. In the video I’m performing some solo forms, the video is 8 months old so I see things which nowadays I can do far better, but still is an example of what I explained above. #historicalfencing #longsword #swordfighting #fioredeiliberi #liechtenauer #meyer #marozzo #swords #spada #schermastorica #hema #historicaleuropeanmartialarts #solodrills #kata #form #theswordsmanofthedale https://www.instagram.com/p/B_Fk5kbH2Vc/?igshid=1crr7j81rdy1h

...I want you to understand that it is a fine skill to know well how to teach others, more so than it is to know well oneself how to fence; because a man who knows how to fence well, but not how to teach, is only good for himself, whereas one who knows how to teach well is of benefit to many people; yet one who understands how to do both has twice the virtue; and those are two distinct skills"

Achille Marozzo (Check out the Marozzo tag for more details on this historical fencing master)

In which I attempt Cloak and Dagger and cause my opponent’s weapon to disappear. Trying to use the sketchy bits of Marozzo I’ve picked up. You might find this interesting, @elsegno

Had to sit out of grappling vs dagger today in sword class due to my busted knee so I drew the play instead using my roommates as ref. This particular pose in the play was very interesting.
