They should do these test with Mark Wildman swinging the hammers

I think given the width and weight of the saber a piercing strike nay be more effective against that armor considering it is scale. Based on the fact that scale and ring mail is very effective at stopping a cutting or slicing blow but won't stop a puncture.

Imagine how unstoppable the person would be in battle with that thing

Why is he chooking the hammer like that

[@Gongolongo]

That's only when practicing form. During the hits, they brought their grip down.
