yeah, but fencing is a SPORT. Exy is talking about REAL martial art, you know... the fat is good for protection, so it'll be harder for the opponent to reach your flesh.



On-topic:

Nice sword, but it's a massive waste of money if you don't train in any martial art requiring such things..

Fencing can well be considered a martial art, and it's a perfectly valid form of swordsmanship.

Besides, my point was that the fat guy just looks funny trying to be all hard with his sword. Made me laugh.

infact training / fighting with weapons to a degree it is better to have a nice layer of fat

start shit like this again and ur gone

lets stay on topic now lads and ladies

anyone else got pics etc of swords they have?
ill get some of mine up later

I dont recall him trying to be "hard" he was marketing the sword and was showing examples of what it can cut, its not like the company hand picked an overweight guy to cut a bamboo stick for people like you to laugh.

yeah sure, i wanna see you utilize you uber leet fencing skills when a thug comes up to beat the crap out of you.

A person's size, weight or physical appearance is not a very effective way of estimating a person's skill.
You underestimate an overweight or underweight person, and then you realize that you're the one with your face on the floor.

I never really used swords before, but by looks alone, I prefer the Long blade katana.
But like they said in the video, that sword depends on the situation you are in...

Nice sword.
how much did it cost you.
