Title: Hail!
Post by: Sir Wulf on 2011-06-10, 16:12:27

I am Sir Wulf, a heathen Ridder (Norse for knight). I must say that I am a reluctant knight. I did not think that the Nordic path was cunducive to what a knight represents. I have studied several combat forms over the years. Everything from Eastern hand-to-hand to practical shooting. But using cold steel is probably one of my favorites. While I am reasonably skilled with many weapon groups, the axe and shield is my true forte.
It is my hope that I can add something useful to this forum.

Welcome Sir Wulf! Have no worries about your uncertainties regarding your preferred style being suitable to the chivalric code for I consider the Viking methods, culture and warrior caste to be the very foundation of knighthood which greatly influenced the entire European and Mid-Eastern conception of an elite warrior's service to their chosen leader.  I hope you can enlighten us all with your contributions with their particular fighting style...I am also very much interested in the Axe! ;)

Welcome! Glad to have another northerner on here!

I must also agree with you that the Knights path is perhaps not so strange from that of a honorable North Man. (http://www.hurstwic.org/history/articles/society/text/drengur.htm)

Would not Wodan agree? (http://www.pitt.edu/~dash/havamal.html)
