2nd Place in Open Sabre (HEMA) @ SwordstrongKC 2024

[@PoorMansHEMA]

Seeing David immediately offer his sword to you was heart-warming. Such an upstanding guy

[@FalseEdgeHEMA]

He's the man

[@dutchmatthews]

This is some of the coolest stuff in the world❤

[@MoMo-mx9ib]

Congratulations! it's always a joy to watch your style and techniques😊

[@LadyNari773]

LOOK MOM I'M IN A FALSEEDGE HEMA VIDEO 🤩

[@alastoromega1426]

The integrity, camaraderie, and commitment you and the HEMA community show never ceases to amaze me... Makes me want to be That much better better of a fencer in honor of it. Cheers mate

[@TITANia69420]

Did that sword break? 😭 Holy fuck, both of them?

[@jaketheasianguy3307]

Yea, Josh have to borrow David's saber til the end of the tournament

[@Chibi_changa]

1:16 surprised they let you continue after you murdered that guy, judges must've been pretty chill

[@praxus6902]

Those longsword exchanges were awesome

[@jesterlordpgome]

Don't know much about HEMA, but the way you fight is really entertaining to watch. It would be awesome if you somehow added hit markers/special effects over strikes. Would make it an even better watch

[@brandthull5471]

Was that a peco blade that broke, or was it a Castille?

[@barnacleandy]

What sabre do you have?

[@SentientSoup]

Nicely done!

[@the_timinator77]

[@roymurray1979]

The ultimate mic drop

[@8pablos8]

Nice!

[@tucznik3572]

Wanted to pick at you for tossing the saber at the ground, but I have remembered that I did the exact same thing when my krieger broke after 3 month from the purchase.

[@BorninPurple]

Waiting for someone who doesn't do HEMA in the comment section to start advising False Edge on what to do: I dare you, I double dare you!

[@TiagoGrilo-t3x]

Easy request here. He shoulda get first place. Jk. Awesome performance keep it up.

[@ALushPair]

You fight like a martial artist. The timing, distance control, snap, and ability to find openings and unique defensive options is brilliant. You're the best weapons fighter i have seen on the planet so far

[@SirWhorshoeMcGee]

You haven't seen much lmao

[@longwoolcoat2266]

Second place to Rob Childs is tremendous.

[@88Spint]

This is the best sword fighting I think I have seen to date. Actually full force with intent. Showcasing functional defense even after striking the winning blow. Fantastic lunges to the legs and hands, that often ends matches before the even get started. And great defense against the same. Loved the speed and the control, really shows how much you trained. I think if I saw more of this and less of the slow explanations and arguments over semantics HEMA would be way more lovable.

[@valeriodeluca712]

oh man when are you coming to italyyyyy

[@rakoomboom8957]

Honestly this looks fun.

[@samsobolev7619]

[@viscountsb7140]

impressive fencing, especially those sabre exchanges.

[@Ara-_-Sso]

The one thing that really make a difference between you and your opponent is you use your footwork really well👏

[@longwoolcoat2266]

Beautiful fencing 🙏

[@TyLarson]

You've become so good.

[@sinisterswordsman25]

That was awesome 🤘💀

[@atamknife74]

🔥🔥🔥

[@Porzuc_Ateizm]

Congratz!

[@joaquincarrasco1200]

I think that hema fencers dont have control in their attacks if they learn about sport fencing control they will be better in all aspecs

[@PoorMansHEMA]

HEMA sabers need sufficient force to score. MOF sabres just need to make any contact. It is very different, even if there are many similarities. (MOF and HEMA 14+ yrs

[@jaketheasianguy3307]

Sport fencer touch and poke, HEMA fencer cut and thrust.
