These guys are REALLY good.  That is perhaps the first I've seen of real sword techniques that actually got me excited to learn it!

Imagine the amount of practice you'll need to get that good.  I really need to get started on that.

Have you seen the videos in this thread?  http://modernchivalry.org/forum/index.php/topic,4.msg4.html#msg4

I love those too.

Sir Edward, my first time...but I've saved them as favorites so I can refer to them whenever...I'd posted a comment for one of them about how I like that historical swordsmanship is experiencing a groundswell of interest and support...videos like these make it more palatable to the masses.

The thing that still sometimes amazes me is how abruptly it can end.  That's real; I like it.

I love their grappling techniques, one of the few videos I have seen where they look real and not forced or clumsy.
