I'm dedicating some time looking at Capo Ferro. But man does Fabris look like bull fighting. It's that thrust as you rotate/crouch/side-step to avoid the opponent's blade that's so fascinating to me as a style. And I agree with others, this vide captures that energy we want to see from a demonstration.
Most beautifull
Many years later and this is still a great demo!
Looks perfect
Perfect footwork, great demonstration, bravi! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Respekt, einfach unglaublich...
Fail! They didn't do it naked, like in the book.
This is one of the BEST videos I've seen of Fabris' drills in action. But for the life of me I can't figure out why people love his system so much. I think it's just a matter of publicity. But really REALLY nice work on the drills.
Some duals would end in a draw. Both would get poked, then die from their injuries.
Blossfechten with no Blood and Masks? Nope It means to the first Blood/Blum/Bloom/Bloss.
Excellent video, his Style is so different, elegant, deadly... The bits I know of his System are in a class of their own in the HEMA World, but require deep stances, which I have done since Childhood in TMAs, so I am able to accomplish these... I hear Rob Rutherford is the top Fabris Rapier practitioner in the English-speaking World? Loving this video either ways, Cheers Lads... Derek Diablo Marxbruder Historical Fencing/MBHF
I've been reading through Fabris, and it's been difficult for me to visualize how so many mutations, cavazione, and countercavazione happen in one tempo. Thank you so much for providing such a useful demonstration!
Love the music!
This italian style better than destreza for me that is dynamic
I think spanish rapier fencing (destreza) is better because you can easily reach the opponent using simpler moves
Uf,uf, jste samurajové Evropy. Zajímal by mě souboj Evropa verzus Japonsko.
what knee/shin guards are you using?
Those are from mixed sport equipment store, I don´t know where are they used normally. But they are quite well protecting and light (full plastic).
They are used in street hockey
As a new student of Fabris, this was excellent to watch, esp. the fluidity of the dagger plays. Well done. /salute
0:14 Interesting this start position. The guys are in “combat” position. Very different of olympic fencing position or Di Grassi or CapoFerro or Bruchius Rapier. Where the head of the player 1 needs to be far away from the player 2's sword.
What kind of rapiers are you using? Who made them?
We were using hanwei or slovakian localy produced rapiers back then. Now we use regenyei.
One isn't even qualified to pick up a rapier until they've read Paradoxes of Defence by George Silver ca. 1599, which is freely available online.
and why is that?
I certainly hope he was being sarcastic. George Silver called the rapier "the worst weapon, an imperfect and insufficient weapon, and not worth the speaking of". As a rapier fencer, I only bothered reading Paradoxes of Defense for comedy value.
:D I've read he did hold some grudge against italian masters but this takes it to another level. will have to check his book now :)
I'm glad to see you guys uploaded a new video. :) This is a lot of good material to study for my own fencing.
I heard you could cut with rapiers. If so, where would these cuts be directed, and what would be the desired effect of them?
Of course you can cut with a rapier! The thing is that, being a one handed weapon and so large, it would be difficult to accomplish some feats, e.g. lascerating an oponents arm with one single cut. You can still do a lot of damage to joints, soft parts of the body (like the neck, where a rapier cut is still pretty much death), fingers, ears, legs, arms...etc.
Andres Halabi Thank you
I've always enjoyed fencing. Nice work with the video! White shoes has such good baiting and countering technique, I'm surprised he let black shoes lunge strait in on him 2x when they were using the daggers.
Sorry! You are touching the blade.....
+Rodrigo Martins Eustaquio and you easily can :) they were probably only really sharp in the last quarter twoards the point. These techniques are for unarmored, most of these, would have little, or no effect on someone wearing full plate armor. Halb schwert, or Half sword would be used in that situation, where the blade is held with on hand on the middle :)
Is this from destreza?
Chrominance87 This is Italian rapier.
Honestly, I find it very difficult to take seriously, someone who is not wearing gloves, and leaves his lower legs exposed. Simple, proper personal protection and you instantly become more credible. Think about it for your next video please.
What the point of wearing full body armor if you are going to do a choreographed zorhau to the head in order to show some technique? Get real dude xd
Additionally back in the day where they did this to the death and they did not wear any armour, just google Renaissance fencing clothes. Hell, the manuscripts show them being naked! lol. So much for armour making you credible. It's about the content, not what you look like. This isn't Olympic fencing with uniform rules, it's life and death swordsmanship that was used regardless of uniform. Observe the technique. It would be like not taking a gun tutorial seriously because the guy isn't wearing an army or police outfit.
As a rookie fencer with sloppy blade work, it was good to see the slow motion replays to visually reinforce a key point for me personally . . . It is a point that has been discussed in practice numerous times but that I still fail to consistently follow . . . and that is the importance of gaining the mechanical advantage of having your forte take control of the opponent's foible.
What rapier's do you use?
Lovely stuff, would love to see Fabris vs Saviolo in a mixed style bout some time ... that would be beautiful to watch.
é meu parente
Have you fenced against any good Capo Ferro fencers and if so, how did it go? How would you describe the differences in style? I myself practice Capo Ferro but after seeing this video I'm tempted to shift techniques.
This is really good!! Awesome maybe. These attitudes! :) I would like to know how much time you practice to gain this level! I'm a young HEMA practitioner.
I don't practice Fabris, but I do practice Destreza which is a somewhat similar style (loosely speaking). I can tell you from experience that the style will definitely not work with foil or epee, because the blades are just too fast. By the time you can take a volte-style step, the foil guy has hit you six times. It's designed for rapiers, which are MUCH slower, and which actually require some commitment to do damage (as opposed to modern fencing weapons, which just need to touch).
This is still one of my favorite demonstrations of Fabris' technique done at tempo. In fact, it's one of the only demos at all on RUclips! I hope to fix that soon though.
Moлодцы! Видна кропотливая работа!
It seems that rapier fighting is very minimalist in its movements. Or is it just this type of movement sets?
@littlebadboyph: It is used for intercepting the blade of the opponent in case of need
@TheWoodenKnight hello, getting the center of the body little bit backwards allows you to push your upper body forward as requested by Fabris. Without that your position would be unstable and you would be probably pulled forward.
I come from a different sword fighting system. This clip is very interesting! If I may ask, what is the position of the free hand for?
Salvator Fabris recommended this hand position because it restricts a line of attack to the head. If necessary the off-hand can be employed to intercept the blade (hopefully on the flat) and deflect it from the face. It is better to risk a little hurt to the hand than incur a known risk of skewering the brain.
I come from a different sword fighting system. This clip is very interesting! If I may ask, what is the position of the free hand for?
For Balance, most of it, and if u practice a lot fencing with dagger i think the muscular memory remains on that left hand doing the movements even if u dont have a dagger in that moment
Does the legs seem a bit unstable in these positions? Still thank you for uploading, old world fighting techniques may have limitations, but their appeal is that they really did use them in actual fighting back then.
Nice Work! Great clip! Fabris live!
Great throw starting at 3:38
Wonderful clip. Would you care to upload more ?
wow, your school is so great and so multisided (longsword, rapier..) much appreciated.
Wauw! Very, very cool stuff! Thanks for sharing.
@iPood523 No, definitely not. Olympic fencing is optimized as a sport, not as a martial art, which means that the participants can get away with a lot of stuff that would lead to the imaginatively named 'double-kill' scenario. Additionally, Olympic fencing blades are extremely (unrealistically so, in fact) light and fast, whereas the true rapier is bloody hefty in comparison. It's less a matter of one being better than the other and more of being optimal for different scenarios.
@janicina Don't thanks, the best reward would be another clip ;-) I'm hopeful, it will not take to long... Cheers /Robert
Beautiful! Serious stesso tempo. Brillaintly executed! Paul--you absolutely CAN use Stesso tempo in competition, but the opponent has to be really comitted to the attack. Don't worry about the stance so much, just get the parry and riposte in a single tempo. Ask your coach. Epeeists still do this frequently. As for the first stance, with hand drawn back, I do know how Fabris intended it, but to me it looks like an invitation--to get the opponent to get too close.
