"Stranger Swings" | Are Ancient Chinese Reproduction Swords Worth Buying??
This video is mainly to point out that, ultimately, the weapon you buy, should be the weapon that suits you, not something you're pressured into.
To that end, we look at some unusual models, and assess if and why they may or may not be worth owning.
As always, thank you all for watching, and if you haven't, please subscribe to our channel for new content every week, sometimes more!

This few moments of blocking strikes and counting to 10 in three different languages, brought me more joy than any trophy, medal, or certification. MARTIAL ARTS ARE INHERENTLY DANGEROUS. DO NOT TRY WITHOUT CERTIFIED/VERIFIED INSTRUCTOR WITH HARD COPY CREDENTIALS. DO NOT TRY THIS WITHOUT PROFESSIONAL SUPERVISION. #autism #martialarts #martialartsgames

Kung Fu Sword | Testing a Horizontal Cut | "5 Ancestor's Boxing" Sequence
Просмотров 972 месяца назад
Some basic jian/gim cuts, leading up to a horizontal cut from a "5 Ancestor's Boxing" sequence I learned from Sifu Joshua Durham a Master of 5A weapons. I won't lie; it took 3 trys to keep the blade flat enough to make the cut at the end of the sequence. That said, I'm happy it only took 2 failed cuts to re-assess, and get it right. :) #kungfu #chinesemartialarts #sword

    There's all kind of purists out there, on any subject. It usually is good to stay honest about the origins of things for historical accuracys sake. For functionality however there is nothing wrong from cross referencing techniques from hema, or even coming up with your own. It's easy to think old forms as some sacred doctrine, when it is clear that the masters developed the forms over hours and hours of play, testing and exploration. A cool point about the long handles of the "apparently" single handed sabers: Indonesian&Filipino martial arts utilize the long handle to bind and hook with. Maybe it used to be the same with the dao and the katana, but lost emphasis over the years while the technique survived elsewhere.

    Very cool stuff, especially the spinning. Nerves of steel doing that so close to the tv. I have always wondered though - why do you think Chinese styles seldom utilize the range of their halberd style weapons? It’s almost treated more as a sword with a really long hilt than it is a spear (at least, in most of the forms I’ve seen). There certainly must be a reason, but it doesn’t seem apparent to me. Anyway, thanks for another great video.

    • @saberserpent1134
      @saberserpent1134 Месяц назад

      Thank you for watching @davidrodgers6939 ! Yes, it is treated more as a two-handed saber (shuang shou dao) than a polearm. Part of the reason is, it's literally a dao (saber) sitting on top of a staff (gwun). Being so top-heavy, one has to grip closer to the head/blade to control cuts and edge-alignment. This is also true of the Tiger Fork (trident) in Southern Styles; the head is so heavy, one has to retain a higher grip, thus reducing range.
