I need to revise my treatise on the basics of german longsword. I'll hoprfully be able to get it posted in a few days. Fortunately i only need to rewrite a single section and add a few things.

Shoutout to @loganraymondshemajourney6510 on youtube for some excellent advice and instruction.

Hessenwetter wie aus einem Drehbuch, so warm wird es heute werden.

Das Wochenende dient zur Erholung von einer stressigen Arbeitswoche, da kommt ein Sonntag wie aus dem Drehbuch beim Hessenwetter doch wie gerufen, aber bitte gewöhnen Sie sich bisher nicht an die Wärme, welche uns heute erwartet wird. Ein Skandinavien Hoch wird uns in der neuen Woche die kühlen Luftmassen aus Russland nach Hessen bringen, aber keine Bange einen Wintereinbruch wird es dadurch bei…

{{ "ok yes but: Gideon's two hander fighting style is not based on Fiore it's based on Lichtenauer" Can you elaborate on that? I have no idea what that means but I'm eager to understand, if you'd be so willing! Are you telling me there ARE books about swordfighting? Is the Sixth actually NOT as insane as everyone thought for learning sword moves that way? I'm so confused and I know nothing about swordfighting or relevant writings and I had no idea they can be BASED ON things? Please infodump!

Hey! So yes: there are absolutely books about swordfighting, and the funny thing is that the entire modern sport of historical European martial arts (HEMA), on which the swordfighting in TLT is based, comes from those books. Check out Wiktenauer for particulars -- note the pun -- but at a very high level: the sport exists because a bunch of beautiful history/SFF nerds were like, "how did people actually used to fight with these weapons?" And it turns out that there are a ton of manuscripts from between the 1400s-1800s ish that are written by old sword masters, explaining exactly how to do different drills, cuts, parries, footwork, etc. The language is sort of imprecise, so people tend to get copies of these manuscripts and sort of "act out" what they think the author was describing, to figure out how to translate from the written word back into a physical medium. Not all of these documents are written; depending on the weapon, there might be leaflets or engraved plates or other drawings that illustrate how to perform different cuts or guards for a low-literacy audience. I really do think that "the Sixth learns swordfighting out of a book?!" has to be a joke intentionally aimed at the HEMA community, because (a) we know tazmuir learned all these swordfighting specifics from a HEMA practitioner, and (b) that is exactly how the sport was developed, and continues to develop. That's how a club builds its curriculum.

Re: Fiore vs Lichtenauer: Fiore was an Italian master, and Lichtenauer was a German one. I have been taught Lichtenauer's style of longsword, and seen people fight using Fiore's style quite a lot. People's opinions vary a lot, but in general I would characterize Lichtenauer's style as sort of workhorse-y, no-nonsense, prioritizing efficiency and making sure that every attack can double as a defense with minimal effort from the swordsperson. Fiore, by contrast, looks very flowery to me; it's a lot more showy; a lot of the guards and cuts look (to my eye) very silly in terms of body mechanics. No question that it can be very effective when you know what you're doing, and no question that Lichtenauer's style can also be very pretty; but every guard or cut I've ever seen from Fiore just looks fragile in terms of body mechanics. This is just my opinion, but seeing how positively froufrou Fiore is in comparison to Lichtenauer, it just seems like Lichtenauer would be much more appealing to Gideon as a character. Much more efficient, fewer wasted movements, much more solid. Plus I know that the sword club that tazmuir's "sword consultant" belongs to is a Lichtenauer club, not a Fiore club. (There aren't that many Fiore clubs. It's not nearly as popular.)

So, if I go word for word exactly like my chosen School of longsword calls for- that's Lichtenauer and Meyer, The longsword the Masters would hand me. Would be between 63 and 73 inches in overall length, with a blade between 45 and 52 inches.

To put it to you this way, most long swords that are mass-produced these days have a 33 to 37 inch blade, the longest "longsword" I know of is a 43" blade and a 55" OAL.

In other news, I'd be a half giant in a D&D campaign

Heya! You mentioned in a recent post that weaponry is a special interest of yours (apologies if I remembered it wrong) Any chance you're free to talk about it a little more? /nf, it seemed really interesting! :D (if you'd like a topic to go off of, I do like swords, but anything is nice! /gen) Feel free to just leave this ask, I'm not too familiar with if this is crossing a boundary :> /gen /nm

Howdy! Weaponry is a special interest of mine yeah! Has been just about all my life ^^ if you're interested in swords in particular, one of the more interesting topics when it comes to European swords is halfswording! I'll put it under the read more.

A common misconception I've seen is the longswords, arming swords, or just any European sword from the medieval period had blunt edges. This has also bred the myth of "sword sharp", the implication being that swords of all kinds excluding Japanese swords were only "sharp enough".

As far as I'm aware these myths and misconceptions come from a few places, and have all sorta bled together to create the idea that Japanese swords are incredible sharp laser swords, European swords are blunt clobbering tools and everything else is only kind of sharp. This idea is inherently silly. I believe it primarily comes from movies, TV, and games, but folks who are just learning about swords see things like the pic above where you can see half swording and a technique called "the murder stroke", as well as an armored opponent vs an unarmored opponent and they start to think maybe there's some credence to the idea that they were blunt.

Fact of the matter is, no, they were not blunt. Full stop. They were designed to cut and do so quite well, and while sharpness may have varied, evidence suggests they were often very sharp. There were swords in history that were blunt, but those are rarer than you'd think. Certain specialized types of rapier, sidesword, and smallsword had triangular or square cross sections and could not cut. That being said, each of those types of swords typically could cut and had a more standard cross section.

Back to the main point and the picture, you may think "how and why would you grab a sword blade especially during a fight? Wouldn't you cut your hands?"

The how is fairly simple. You can hold onto a sharp edge without getting cut provided the blade isn't being pushed or pulled too much. Swords aren't lasers and do require a physical action to cut. Holding onto the sharp bit won't cut off your hands. There's also a specific grip you can employ to squeeze the flats of the blade in order to avoid holding the edges. It's not comfortable by any means, and is much easier with gloves, but it's very much doable and fairly easy. I've personally tried it and not had any issues.

The why is a bit less simple. The guy in the armor is halfswording to gain more point control, for more precise and powerful thrusting. Giving yourself another point of contact effectively turns the sword into a mini polearm for some purposes, and an excellent grappling tool for others. Grappling or wrestling is a necessary tool for fighting armored opponents, and if you're armored and know your opponent might grapple, it would be valuable to know halfswording.

The guy on the right is using a half swording technique known as the murder stroke. I can't remember which manuscript it's in off the top of my head so I'll come back and edit this part here with the name. Edit: it was either lichtenauer or one of the other german masters post-lichtenauer! In German the technique is mordhau, mordschlag, or mordstreich! Your options for fighting armored opponents when you have a sword are fairly limited. You can either attempt to thrust at the common gap points in the armor, go for grappling and use a dagger for the same purpose but at closer range, or go for concussive force. When using the murder stroke, you're using the guard and pommel as a striking tool kind of like a hammer or mace.

To those unaware you have to keep in mind swords were back up weapons. They were equivalent to the pistol today. It stays on your hip while you use your bigger stuff. The context of a duel changes that depending on circumstance, but on the battlefield if you're down to just your sword you're already in trouble in most contexts.

So is it safe? No. I don't recommend trying this unless you know what you're doing or your life depends on it. But that's an important caveat, if you're in a situation where its a viable technique, your life is worth far more than a few cuts on your hands. If you're doing it right, you'd likely only receive a minor cut or two on your palms.

Is it historical? As far as I'm aware yes! It's in some manuscripts and iirc there are some written accounts of duels involving half swording, I could be mistaken though. Duels brought about all sorts of weird stuff whether it was useful or not. Another thing to note is that the people who wrote manuscripts for fighting were also trying to sell their manuscripts and teachings. They tried to keep it interesting. There's some goofy stuff in some of these manuscripts!

I hope that was interesting! Feel free to ask more questions in the future if you like, I'll be happy to answer them best as I can! ❤️

I know no one ever reads blogs anymore, but I publish some stuff on ancient historical fencing every once in a while. It's all in Spanish, which might be useful as I don't see a lot of resources for this topic in my native language.
