Malam hebdomadis fīnem dīmicātiōnis Londīniī habuī. Certāvī in London HEMA Open certātiōne in trēs categoriīs (in hōc ordine): acīnacēs, dolō cum pugiōne et ēnsis longus.
In acīnace, bis vīcī ac bis victus sum in circulō, cōnficiēns trīcēsimus ante ēlīminātiōnem, quō (meritō) victus sum in gradū prīmō.
In dolō cum pugiōne paulum melius pugnāvī - ter vīcī et bis victus sum, cōnficiēns vīcēssimus secundus. Tamen, quia (nimis?) sēro fuit, administrātōrēs sēdecim tantum proeliātōrēs (ā quīnquāgintā octō) in ēlīminātiōnem prōgressī esse statuērūnt. Hm
In ēnse longō plānē stultus fuī. In circulō omnia certāmina vīcī, octus post circulōs fuī, sed, ut proximō annō, victus sum in gradū prīmō ēlīminātiōne

I had a bad fencing weekend in London. I competed in the London HEMA Open tournament in three categories (in this order): saber, rapier and dagger, and longsword.
In saber I won two and lost two fights in the pool, ending up 30th before elimination, where I lost (deservedly) in the first round.
In rapier and dagger I fought a bit better - I won three times, and lost two times, ending up 22nd. However, because it was (too?) late, the organisers decided to let only 16 fighters (out of 58) into the elimination. Hm
In longword I was just simply stupid. In the pool I won all bouts, but, like last year, I lost in the first round of elimination Why...

Hodiē certātiōnī Brünner Stich interfuī quae ā Dobrovolný šerm ordīnāta est. Ēventus valdē bonus fuit, sed ego pejus quam vellem ēgī. In circulō quīnque ā sex certāminibus vīcī, sed illum certāminum quō victus sum vincere dēbērem. Post circulōs decimus fuī. Quīnquāgintā proeliatōrēs in ēlīminātiōnem prōgressī sunt, ergō ā gradū prīmō proeliāvī. Āmōtus sum in gradū secundō ā Matthaeō Koronthāly, sed hoc fuit certāmen quō plūrimum ā tōtā certātiōne frūctus sum. In tōtō ūndēvīcēsimus fīnīvī
Today I took part in the tournament Brünner Stich, organised by Dobrovolný šerm. It was a very good event, but I did worse than I would have liked. In the group I have won five out of six bouts, but the one where I lost I should have won. I was 10th after the groups. 56 fencers advanced to the elimination, therefore I fought from the first round. I was eliminated in the second round by Matúš Koronthály, but it was the fight that I enjoyed the most from the whole tournament. In total I have finished 19th

My Viking Broad Seax is composited of multiple bars. To maintain pattern flow, I forge a reverse tip. This involves cutting the tip in reverse and then forging it back which allows the pattern to flow along the cutting edge.

Why do such things keep happening to me? Went out in #Barcelona to buy a book on Saint Jordi day and came back with a sword.
A sword needs a guard and a pommel. The Chronoblade sword receives them in this video! Follow along as I continue completing this sword.

An intentionally destroyed #BronzeAge #sword found in a burial at Blaubeuren-Asch. Bronze Age weapons deposited in burials were often bent or hacked into pieces before placed into the grave, in this way they 'died' with the owner. Dating 9th century BC.
