Ancient Polearm 戟 VS Two Swordsmen

[@HRmocap]

I'm the white armor in the video. Long time no see everyone :) sparring is always fun. This time it's 2vs1.

[@fredfry5100]

​@@이기엽-d6hWhere can we get the armor?

[@Axel5550]

Your skills are legendary. May I ask where you acquired such amazing armor??

[@HRmocap]

​@Axel5550 I made this my self. hand made with 40usd coast 😂

[@jrlonergan6773]

Simply amazing

[@christianneher1041]

Dude looks like an Elden Ring boss! Fricken rad!

[@pauger4512]

How to defeat multiple oppponents: 1. Get pointy stick. 2. Get friends with pointy sticks. 3. Stand in formation with friends.

[@tonarsilverwolf6485]

based and phalanx-pilled

[@SilverforceX]

You know the Koreans had bombs right? Right? Bombs!

[@BarsusDraco]

You forgot step 4 and 5 4. Get your friends' friends to take some bows and fire at your enemy while you and friends stay in formation 5. Get even more homies and let them charge at the enemy on horseback with polearms

[@jordy619hi]

Never underestimate a long pointy stick!

[@quintessenceSL]

Wonder how an updated (lighter weight) polearm would fare. Change the balance so it is closer to a bo, and you have reach with better defense.

[@serpnta1267]

I like the white armor. Really cool looking.

[@sharkastic2633]

I'm in awe of how well timed the distance close from the swordsman is at 0:35.

[@stephenfitzgerald9769]

The ‘ JǏ ‘ is one of those weapons that just looks like it would be nasty to fight against. A spearhead with a wicked blade that both hooks and cuts?! I’m not fighting someone armed with that, unless I have a substantial pole-arm of my own! 😅

[@lolasdm6959]

In Ancient China there was a speacialized buckler with two hooks which can hook onto the Ji and basically nullify it completely. Elite light infantry would use that and a sword to break through the Ji frontline.

[@Intranetusa]

​@@lolasdm6959 The Han era hook shield (Gou-Rang) can not neutralize polearms entirely. Skallagrim's youtube channel actually did a test of the Gou Rang and found out that polearms have significantly more leverage and can overpower the Gou-Rang's top and bottom hooks. The Gou Rang has to catch the polearm by its center spike in order to have enough leverage to stop it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIm8naeEhdGAl68

@@Intranetusa He used a spear, not a Ji specifically, it's only effective against the likes of Ji or similar helberds.

[@Intranetusa]

@@lolasdm6959 The Ji is a spear with a dagger-axe head attached. The spear, Ji, glaive, European halberd, etc. all have the same leverage advantage over shorter weapons/equipment because they're all polearm weapons. The top and bottom hooks of the Gou Rang will still be at a big leverage disadvantage against the Ji - no different than a spear. So the Gou Rang will still need to catch or slide down the Ji with its middle spike to have sufficient leverage to counter the polearm leverage.

[@JockHuns]

Hello! Another kendo person in video is me.🤗 thank you.

[@sandythamtono2081]

Double parry into a kill last match was great! 😊

[@acudaican]

I guess this is why you don't fight someone with a weapon of war when all you've got is the equivalent of a sidearm haha.

[@chengkuoklee5734]

Accidents happen on battlefield, you got to use whatever you get.

[@VTPSTTU]

Thanks for the video. Overcoming two good people is tough.

[@brandoncastellano1858]

It’s so nice to get a new video from this channel! I miss these!!

[@S.Grenier]

We want the next part ! Also, this really made me want to replay Bushido Blade for some reason. Man... You know you're old when Bushido Blade nostalgia can hit you out of nowhere like that !

[@Rebelcommander6]

Part of me has been wanting a Ji for my own sparring. The weapon came back to my attention when I was looking for ancient weapons to include in a story

[@umashikurumisawa4057]

薙系は突き攻撃で少ない歩幅で相手を斬ることが激る。 一方で片手剣は取り回しの良さで相手の攻撃範囲内に潜れば制することができる。 剣チームが刀を滑らせて相手を斬りにいく技はかっこいいと思いました。

[@ericconyers8972]

I have heard that the leverage of the pole arm is sufficient that a one hand sword parry cannot stop an overhead strike. You should test this. A butt spike would possibly change things when the swordsman gets close.

[@thejinn99]

That weapon is too long for the space they have. I think it may have performed better if there was more space. You'll notice he couldn't really swing his polearm in a wide arc without hitting the walls.

[@Space-1255]

I hadn't noticed that, but it makes what he accomplished all the more admirable!

[@ChaolaoFueChi]

Indeed, it's necessary to look threatening and intimidating to your opponents before you, especially against to two or three opponents. That's the best one person could do to fend them off.

[@ImusNoxa]

You guys always make this look like so much fun!

[@-RONNIE]

Good job everyone for a training session 👍🏻 it's always nice to have different techniques, styles, multiple combatants & weapons because it will make you better in the end.

[@LordApolodoro]

Spear is the queen of weapons.

[@Jenjak]

Your channel is very entertaining and informative at the same time. I love it !

[@macielence]

Que buen video. Ese sparring se ve muy divertido. Oss!

[@wiseSYW]

1:40 nice trick attack

[@mumblety96]

Super interesting. Thank You!

[@Diremouse42]

This was fun to watch

[@nathanwheatley8500]

In a two-on-one fight, don’t separate so much. You’re turning it into two one-on-one fights. And the pole weapon has the advantage there.

[@skyereave9454]

Wouldn't it be easier for the polearm if they stay closer though? If they are on opposite sides, he can only give point to one at a time. Not correcting you, I'm just exchanging thoughts.

[@이기엽-d6h]

1:40 nice trick! so smart!

[@Axel5550]

What kind of armor is that!! I could really use those gloves!

[@andrebaxter4023]

Looks fun. I'd love to train with these guys.😁

[@vitorh3568]

www this was interesting and fun one xD nice!

[@MAXFightMan]

Great content

[@Priapos93]

Excellent demo

[@gozer87]

Always cool to see Weaponism videos

[@adzi6164]

heck yeah, we going Three Kingdoms with this one

[@guyblew1733]

Excellent video. 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@Kai怪]

thats the reason why Samurai in war, their main weapon is spear not katana.. katana is only emergency weapon when spear is broken. spear's movement is really hard to predict which they want to pointing/target us.. but this video is really great. i really like sojutsu, but this art class is hardly find in my country. sadly

[@HerrDoc132]

what is this dark souls boss

[@sidneyhuckabee3598]

How do I buy the armor?

[@jestfullgremblim8002]

I want to know too lol

[@HRmocap]

sorry. it's my hand made armor😂

[@thebraykasnmtuskens]

That armor though 😮

[@ArK047]

Sick dagger-axe

[@diegorojas472]

WOW Is amazing!!!

[@TenchiBushi]

Polearm is my weapon of choice! Myself being a Bujinkan Taijutusu practitioner, I favor long staff & yari (spear). I love the armor! Did polearm fighter design it himself or someone else made it? Greetings from Aomori, Japan!

[@helloworld9996]

maybe the 戟 techniques were'nt properly spread across the border, this is more used like a spear in the video but still, range advantage made a difference, probably even more so if the space would be bigger

[@jatsantsa]

I have one big problem with this video. It is too short. Otherwise perfect as always.

[@RomainBX101]

This video amazing and interesting.

[@ze_glitchy_gamer7629]

Ah! It's the... Ahhhh... what was it called again?

[@willnitschke]

Slapping someone with the side of a pole even if there is a blade on the end isn't going to do diddly squat against even a lightly armoured opponent. The guy with the pole had a huge reach advantage and should have been aggressively attacking while outside the range of his opponent and should have focused on staying outside of katana range at all times. However he demonstrated zero skills. At least the swordsmen demonstrated some good parrying at times.

[@SilverforceX]

That pole has a spear & horizontal blade, if it was a real weapon that slap would have gone right through light armor (padding).

[@willnitschke]

@@SilverforceXBullsh*t. I've trained both in pole and katana. All you can achieve with a blade on the end of a pole is a light slap. 😂

[@ChaolaoFueChi]

​@@willnitschke I'm pretty sure they've moved up to use actually steel blunted weapons for practice, so I think their playing it safe, since it's something new it seems of the channal. I'd like to see more longer range weapons, or something fun and ridiculous, an archer fighting defensively in very close quarters with a short bow and knife or short sword, or along with a small buckler shield with maybe 3 opponents.

[@lennylim4959]

1 vs 3 and 1 vs 4

[@yip2454]

This weapon always reminds me of Qin dynasty

[@修釋張]

Good fight GG

[@carloscatano1750]

Nice!

[@snichelsticks8653]

sweet

[@Mephiston1984LoD]

😊

[@MasakanSolaris]

Dude why are they trying to rush into him they are giving the spear guy the total advantage by giving him what he wants. What they should have done is have one of the sword guys eat the spear and have the other one go in while distracted.

[@SilverforceX]

Who wants to be the one to "eat the spear" irl though, nobody wants to die. lol
