I love how gentlemanly HEMA is. Hits are acknowledged without argument and shaking hands afterwards is pretty standard.

for some reason I am drawn to arming sword dueling above all the other sword engagement classes. too bad training in these arts is not easily found. I'm coming up on 60 and now have the time and interest in pursuing such art forms.

I’ve been watching this video for a couple of years now as I study HEMA and I’m increasingly intrigued by the style you guys are engaged in. This being arming sword combat without a buckler. Is there historical evidence of people fighting with only an arming sword? The way you guys practice it on this video looks so damn good.

in terms of dueling with only the sword (manuals like the walpurgis) there is little evidence, just hints but it should be noted that it was a standard weapon for bow, crossbow and warmachinery people... i doubt they carried a buckler too to be completely honest because thats what the bow or crossbow is for since you dont just want the weapon go or throw aside... for the machinery crew it would be more of a "freedom of movement" thing... in the end the arming sword was never meant to be more than a defensive weapon on battlefields.

Sorry I missed this Andrés. AEMMA (kzitem.info/rock/BhKCyb3DdMJYGz1nsJGcjA) Primarily focuses on the work of Fiore dei Liberi a 14th century fencing master. This was indeed typical of the age.

How would the addition of hand guard on the swords alter the fight?

It would give you a bit of control over your opponent's blade (by catching it with the guard you can redirect it a little), but mostly it just stops your fingers from getting chopped off.

You cross your legs are unbalanced and you are using saber modern techniques for a middle age sword, all completely incoherent technically wrong you are in a big disadvantages in that way...

I'm curious to hear at which point you feel either of the participants are unbalanced? This is technique studied and taught by the 14th century master Fiore dei Liberi, any similarity to modern saber techniques is derivative.

Thanks for showing this. I've only ever seen a one handed sword of this type used with a buckler. I just assumed without the buckler you still had the same guards just without the off hand tool. Nice to see how it is done!
