10 years on and this is still one of my absolute favorite technique videos.
Thank You very much for Your kind words.
Why would anyone care about Olympic foil fencing when this exists?
thank you:) anyway we still have to work on it.
I really like the intensity that you guys bring to this.
+Will nonya I find it a little... awkward/embarrassing
+DeathBlade93 ahh, feel free to put up a video showing the non-awkward/embarrassing way to do things.
Sure that's how the world works, you can't have an opinion unless you can do better.
DeathBlade93 or have some sort of productive input. Otherwise there is a special word for you.
+Will nonya No, you can just state an opinion on something as subjective as how you interpret "Intensity", in my humble opinion the jumpiness looks uncontrolled and the screaming reminds me of Dragon Ball Z, some people like it, and that's ok, but to me, looks a little awkward. Sorry if I have a different opinion, and I'm again sorry I will not be making a video explaining the correct level of "Intensity"
Pěkná práce chlapi, jedno z mála opravdu kvalitních šermířských videí na youtube.
thanks a lot to all of you for your favourable comments
Wow there's sparks when you guys clash, Thats awesome!
Insane, and very much a depiction of how i understand Lichtenauers Intentions.
Great Interpretations and very impressive actions!
Hello, thank you very much for your positive comment, it motivates us to go on and do it better:)
Great execution. Very natural and immediate, perfect intensity. Simply love it. Amazing.
Dicor, thank you very much!
Dobrá práce chlapi! Jste jedni z mála šermířů, kterými se může naše malá země česká pochlubit! Jen tak dál!
ahoj! děkujem moc za tak příznivý komentář. zkusíme na sobě zapracovat aby to bylo i lepší :)
Idk if anyone noticed but damn, sparks are literally flying at 1:02 - 1:03
Outstanding work!
* year later edit: your duplieren is so right, so real. Even in sparing it happens slower, possible mostly to do against weaker opponents, but what you show here looks sooo good, this is the way!
thanks a lot for your positive comment!
Great technique, very fun to watch. I hope to speak with you soon on discussing a strategy for your return. PM me.
Well damn, didnt expect to find you here of all places
I was grinning the whole video, wonderful display lads, Im sure Lichtenauer would be proud.
thank you! but you are too kind with the Lichtenauer remark:)
Sparkles! Great Job
Great stuff gentlemen!
Hello, thank you for your support!
great demonstration ,I hope to see more ...
Hello, thank you! we will try:)
Прекрасное видео!!!
Nice job guys!
Nice work guys :-)
Sehr schön !
More videos please!
beautiful. where can i find those masks for sale
Hi, thank you for comment! well, we have made those masks on video by ourselves (it is padding and covering of sport masks), there are probably more possibilities to buy it now but the padding and protection of shoulders etc. differs. Good masks were sold by our colleagues from Slovakia gesellschaft-lichtenawers.eu/tsc/ but I am not sure wether they still produce it, also Allstar sells something
hope you make it to the states. I would love to cross steel with you someday.
do you fight any other weapons?
I currently fight rapier and long sword.
Hi Michael, thank you for comment, I don´t know if we make it to the states but maybe:) we also use other weapons but we mostly use them for stage fight and have not concentrated yet on serious research of their use from manuscripts
Very good
A question about the body armor. Are the jackets padded or a coat of plates?
the jackets are padded but they are not too thick so that they can be comfortable and flexible. I would say an "average thickness of padding":). certainly for the purpose of sparring or contests they are probably the minimum that can used.
Your doublets are fantastic. Can you tell me how you got them?
It's also nice to see the forms done with high energy, thank you.
hi, sorry for delay:) thank you! as regards the doublets, they are home made and a bit worn out. Nowadays you can certainly find nicer and better ones in the Hema market
great video and great skills guys ! i notice you change swords and federschwerts during the video what do you use and who makes them please ?
Hi, thanks a lot for your favourable comment. that is right, well the swords are from major part made by Luděk Kalný www.ludekkalny.wz.cz/, the same for the federschwerts, we also use those made by Jaroslav Bureš. Both are from the Czech Republic.
Lukas Žehart
thank you. keep up the good works
Beutyfull, just beutyfull.
nice, more vids!
Very fast, well played.
hi, thanks to all of you guys for comments!
I want to learn it！
Beautiful techniques, but I cant find on weytora web this song :/
Weytora are our friends. We asked them for song which we heard and liked. But it was about 2013 :-)
@@BundaZehart děkuji mockrát, píseň se mi líbila a rád bych ji přidal do hudby na šerm :-).
@@teodorsvanda1499 V tom případě zkuste kontaktovat přímo skupinu Weytora a domluvte se s nimi. My si už bohužel nepamatujeme, jak se tato konkrétní skladba jmenuje (ale zkusíme zapátrat a kdyby náhodou, napíšeme sem)
@@BundaZehart děkuji mockrát :), píseň jsem již našel ale na stránkách je jen ukázka 20 sekund tak je kontaktuju a snad se vyvede
@@teodorsvanda1499 Budeme držet palce
Music?
it is band Weytora - see the final titles
ahoj, dik moc
Which treatise is this from?
MS Dresd.C.487
hi, see the end of the video, there are listed the main resources
dobrá práce kluci ;)
děkujeme moc Fuci!
Looks great! Id love to see more like krump, schaytel, zucken, durchwechsel, and others :)
thanks a lot! maybe we will try to make another video in the future but I cannot tell for sure now
Šermujete jenom obouručníma nebo používáte i jedenapůlruční meče?
omlouvám se za zpoždění s odpovědí: to co používáme na videu jsou meče, které jsme dřív nazývali jedenapůlruční, správnější označení je ale dlouhé meče, v podstatě se drží stále oběma rukama. asi jde do značný míry o otázku terminologie, kdo jakou používá. jednoručními meči samotnými (bez štítu, štítku apod.) téměř nešermujeme. za dvouruční meče my interně označujeme jen lancknechtské meče délky min. cca 150 cm. doufám, že to takhle stačí:)
@@hazicha Dobře, děkuji za odpověď protože mě meče a šermování okolo 15. století docela zajímá.
When I first saw kendo, I was struck by the lack of actual fighting, and the fact that you never blocked and always struck at the same time that you parried.
Perhaps effective swordsmanship evolved by natural selection in every land that knew to forge blades.
HEMA has many of the same basic - "no BS" - principles as Kendo.
Developments in the execution of both arts was however somewhat different because of the intended functionalities and thereby promulgated functional features of the associated weapon types.
Both of their success can be measured by the military excellence of the areas these weapons came from, in my opinion.
***** Kendo is in my opinion less abstracted from fencing than sport fencing. There is a lot around Kendo that would be "useless" in pure sports and therefore abandoned. Eg. all the ritual stuff like treating learning how to properly treat a real sword, hitting with the edge, body contact etc.
I think it is save to say that Kendo would be a good preparation for a real sword fight. At least much better than sport fencing, since the simulated weapon (smallsword) there is crap in the first place ^^
***** And even if, there is absolutely no reason to be so condescending.
+TheMasturCheef
I have to disagree about sport fencing. You make a good point, and it addresses a large part of fencing, but not all of it. More traditional styles of sport fencing, of which I have learned for almost a decade, present a lot of details that are applicable in HEMA. When I "transitioned" to HEMA, it never actually felt like a transition. I could take ideas from manuscripts and bring them back into sport fencing very easily, and I've seen plenty of HEMA fencers who could use some sport fencing experience.
Bit late but saying that the smallsword is crap is kinda well, it feels like such a weak statement. It does what it is supposed to do, it is not a battlefield weapon, it is a duelling weapon intended to thrust, and it does well at being that. Smallsword fencing isn't that much different to rapier fencing, it evolved just because it was more convenient to carry around a smaller weapon and because the culture of swordsmanship was in decline. It kind of just was what it was.
