While you were living your peasant life, i studied the art of the sword.
Draw your blade if you feel worthy

I fart in his general direction.

anyone with a sword like that knows jack shit about swordfighting

Its funny because that sword is unbelievably impractical, to the point that it would almost be laughable if someone actually tried to use it irl

check my map - i'm clearly walking in circles

>that fucking wallhanger
i had one of those, the wood in it was so shit it shrank and required i tighten the pommel by another 90 degrees in order to get it to stay in place.

>tfw no actual money to buy real swords with

judging by his posture, i bet he has back problems. so even if he is able to swing his sword i bet he would hurt his back, and then i would hurt his face.

Why is it sword nerds always have dorky shoes? All this effort in his costume and he's wearing grey running shoes.

I suppose mommy won't finance a good pair of boots.

>so we see again
wut?

You messed with the wrong faggot

Cut you vato.

You were saying

Let's do this, son. Hope you ate your Wheaties, bitch.

What country do you live in?

>implying I respect recognized international boundaries

This no pump-a-rum.

Im asking because your home is ugly and I dont respect you

>Moss green shag carpet and wood veneer paneling
>TFW my childhood home had both
Holy smokes. Its like you live in a time capsule from the late 70s/early 80s.

You're right fucked now m80

>implying you're not a huge faggot living in a shit trailer

I live in the US, and yes, the place is old. The carpet feels so soft though...
I'm renting, working on fixing credit so I can buy. The sword though...he's been my partner through thick and thin.

>Fuck out the way, faggot...

Oh, and it's a stick built, not a trailer.

The sneakers crack me up for some reason.

Oh man we got a real sword fighter in the thread now. Tell us all about half-swording

...

Judging from the look of your hand, you are about 80 pounds overweight.

Pull out my axe and rek him

Dude I love punching nazis

...

The cross-guard is pretty useless and the grip is a little short, but other than that it seems like a regular sword.
It doesn't look sharpened, but if it were it would be perfectly fine to cut and stab with.

that head is absurdly thick

>but if it were it would be perfectly fine to cut and stab with
its a beveled metal bar m8, you aint fencing for shit with it.

It weighs 1.6 kg

fuck off outta the way

Fufufu...I'll destroy you with my kamikaze special technique. Heh, shoganai

That's what she said.

I need it for full decap

Yeah, almost looks like a stylized wood cutting axe.

Thank you for your service, kind sir... It's just too bad your childrens' generation fucked the world for our generation and our childrens' generation...

>your children's generation

I'm 22..

Obviously it's a fucking prop.
My point is that the blade proportions.
It's not some Skyrim Daedric sword with ridiculous blade symmetry and weight.

those proportions are awful m8, thats a terrible fighting axe

go watch matt eastons video on dane fighting axes

yeah, but it still handles like a club. i know, ive got one.

Holy fuck you're dense.

Well it's not for fighting. It was used to make planks.

Not an argument, kid. Try making sense next tme

Im pretty quick so id just run up and punch him in the face. He'd probably go down on the one hit. And swords are pretty useless if the guy is less than a metre away

Actually tbh id just laugh and walk away

surely then you would want a different shape for the head.

was about to say the same thing. all that effort for the autismo clothing but neglected quality footwear for some JC penny meme feet

Nothing personal fag.

there's nothing wrong with asymmetry if the blade is properly made.

the problem with the thing in OP's pic is that its almost certainly a 440 stainless thing that has no edge retention, is liable to crack, and probably has a welded-on rat-tail tang that's begging to break at first use.

Just push his scrawny virgin ass out of the way. He can go cry his way back to his brony meeting

...

As you might see it's not a modern axe, it's a replica of a swedish axe from the 600s. Mainly used for wood chopping and cutting out planks for boats. Thats why it has a thick and heavy head.

that's at least 0.5kg, and probably 0.7kg more than a real fighting axe. here's a end-on view of a real Petersen type M axehead:

I wasn't saying a sword blade has to be symmetrc.
Blade symmetry is a word used in the HEMA community. It refers to the characteristics of a blade's shape. Whether it's perfectly symmetric or asymmetric.

dimensions of the tapers accurate and all?

See
I know it's not a battle axe. Its a wood cutters tool.

Also again:
Obviously it's a goddamn prop and not a fighting sword.
But if you would make a sword with those proportions, it would be perfectly ok to fight with. Not as good as it could be, but it's far from a fantasy design like a fucking Buster sword or something.

Way of the gun beats fag with a crappy replica sword every time.

you really dont need to explain about hema terminology. I've been doing it for about 15 years (and yes, I know Easton, Rawlings, Norling, Galas, Forgeng, etc.).

Yeah. Everything is accurate to the original axe that is currently at the historical musem of stockholm

Then why did you assume I was saying that the blade has to be symmetric?
That's why I clarified what blade symmetry is.

neat. got a link or anything i can take a look at? its the first ive heard of an axe like that

just ignore the faggots user
i like it, always enjoyed looking at the different designs of old work axes. planks, tree cutters, splitters, framing, etc.

You will not survive.

...

>that chain
is this the late 90s?

Woah. Tuff guy over here. I bet you listen to rap music and smoke cigars while drinking whisky and boxing.

Dunno why dont you ask the mirror nerd.

gransforsbruk.com/en/product/gransfors-two-lugged-beard-axe/

gave me a historically accurate tool anthropology boner

I would probably just shoot him.

looks like a decent place to source examples from, but is there a link to stuff on an actual historical find?

Well, I don't feel worthy so can I just go?

I think my Danish M/1802 artillery saber would last longer in a regular fight than this shit. And that is a 216 year old piece of metal.

try here:

mis.historiska.se/mis/sok/start.asp

Yes, I think its a cool looking axe. The one I posted pictures of I bought of a swedish ''vikingstyle'' smith that crafts old school axes and tools by hand.

Lmao!
White people always look fuckin stupid when they be trying to look tough.
POC we look tough without even trying. Hahahaha.

Not a gun user, but that bit they use to cock never moves

...

It's what's called Single Action. You have to manually cock it each time.

...

All these cringelords always spend all this time and money to dress the part and then they always wear shitty, dirty sneakers.

Then why'd you say you've punched Nazis, if you're not a WW2 veteran?

where did you buy it?

You've got a tie hanging off your lamp?
