HEMA - Longshield - Hans Talhoffer and Fiore dei Liberi - throw sword

First larger video with long shield testing. The current version has its flaws, but we now have a much better grasp of the possible range of damage on impact. The target was veal ribs. And usually there was a broken rib. Then we threw a sword at a target in training. Shield height 180 cm, width 56 cm, weight approx. 6-7 kg #hema #historicaleuropeanmartialarts #fechten #manuscript #sword #talhoffer #HansTalhoffer #shield #test #cutting #martialarts #reconstruction
