Goliath Longsword

Via Paul Bennett, the instructor of the new Schola Gladiatoria group in Bradford, comes Mike Rassmussen’s translation of the anonymous fechtbuch from 1510ish. You can download it here.

Kudos to Paul and Mike.

Pete Maydon, of the Boars Tooth Fight School, won the annual longsword tourney in Dijon this weekend. Having competed before, and watched the last one I know the standard is very high.

Well done Pete!
