    Should have saved your money from that crap armour and got a better sword. Also, wtf.. you should have made mincemeat out of that tree. Frankly made us sword dudes look a little dweeby. Not sure if that was your intention or not, but we can do that for ourselves without your help thank you very much.

      I honestly didn’t know that ‘sword dudes’ was a thing but a couple hits on this bowl and it became totally logical. I’ve only graduated to Kukri dude so what the hell do I know?

      Clearly this man has trouble recognizing true Alpha energy when he sees it. King Arthur himself would tremble before this man simply from the pure Chad energy this man radiates. He doesn't even need the armor because his aura of excellence naturally scares blades away from touching him for fear of them imploding upon making contact with him. The armor isn't to protect him. It's to protect us by trapping him inside.

    The basic test of a new sword back was to give a couple chops into a stump and a couple good flexes. Blade HQ definitely owes you a new sword.

    Epic! This was like an outtake from 'Monty Python and the Holy Grail'. How could you possibly forgot to include a codpiece with your armor? Rookie mistake! The sword snapping is evidence that the Curse of Lynn selling Cold Steel is REAL, and all new Cold Steel blades are now damned. The good news is that if you have a belt grinder and a new handle, you now are the proud owner of a short sword and a dagger. Good times!

      My first knife was a Christmas present to myself. A Cold Steel Mini Tanto in 1996, since discontinued. It was the single knife of my collection for 25 years. Now, well probably over 100. Cold Steel appeals to my inner child of every year.

    The true, burning question that I have, that you failed to address I may add…..can you use the shield to baton the sword through the table!?!?! I do have to say, that the Wallace would have equalled “freedom!” Well done as always!

    lol i love this, i love the thumbnail, i love the shadiversity video that he’ll do that exposes you, and i love the matt easton response to shadiversity that carefully explains that shadiversity is a dunce and that there are specific contextual constraints of your fencing style that make it authentic to early 21st century post industrial US suburbia.

  • @etherealicer
    @etherealicer Před rokem +4

    Best thing to do with a sword like this. Take a bottle of beer, place the tip of the sword under the cap, then hold sword and bottle and lazily drop the sword on its pommel. A drop of about 10cm or 3 banana diameters should do the trick and send the cap flying. Coolest way to open a beer.
    Good to know how crappy ColdSteel swords are (and they are not even cheap).

    • @etherealicer
      @etherealicer Před rokem

      Also, I would say this is a warranty case. A sword should take a lot of more impact. Eventually, all swords (that get used) break but even a cheap Hanwei training sword will last you about 1-1.5 years of weekly training.
