    A Wheel Of Time Memorable Moment
    Book 2 The Great Hunt: Chapter 45 Blademaster
    High Lord Turak and several Seanchan soldiers interrupt Rand, Mat, Hurin, Perrin, and Ingtar stealing the Horn of Valere and Mat's ruby-hilted dagger from his house.
    Turak tells them that he had suspected Fain would try to steal the Horn, "I have been suspicious of him since Huon died", but he will kill them instead. When a soldier tries to take the Horn, Mat stabs him with his dagger, only to find that the merest scratch can kill a man in extreme agony. The dagger causes the victim's body to turn black and leaves him in agony.
    When the man is dead, Ingtar and the others fight with the soldiers and Rand fights Turak. Through Turak is a skilled blademaster, Rand defeats him, despite having to hold off the call of saidin throughout the fight, "saidin flowed towards him but he ignored it".
    This program is read by Audie Award-winning narrator Michael Kramer

And unlike in the show, Rand actually trained with Lan for a good amount between books 1&2, plus he should have inherent knowledge and talent from Lews Therin, so it does make sense that he could beat Turak, who was a blademaster, but an aging and weaker one.
