Don't most deaths from violent crime occur from getting pummeled with fists and feet anyway? Thought I recalled that.

Having trouble with playing the video. It's either all choppy or just won't dl properly. Really interested in seeing it though.

"Isn't it there at the top of the thread on the left?"


Ah, yes it is. Sorry. Was looking(admitedly not very hard) for it on the right, and it's also smaller so I missed it. :)

Also a 'Go To Page X' at the top would be nice too.


Looks nice.

Re: Through kendo eyes

Most at least seemed smugly superior in their posts(though I'm sure we seem the same way a lot of the time), though most were also fairly polite. I think for most of the rest its just another case of "jApanEse sowrds r teh l33t!!1!1" syndrome. I'm sure with the proper medication and plenty...

Re: Rear naked choke?

"i think you forgot something Jake, what would have happened if the man on your back had a knife also. RNC can be used to get a 3 point tie up for either striking or stabbing so it can go both ways." Then I don't think I would consider it an 'open handed' technique. Thats just me though. I...

Re: PostTraumaticStress

Maybe it just wasn't written about much? Might not have been a subject thought worthy of much study or of being documented. Not to mention having tales of a warrior in his bed, weeping into his pillow like a little girl after a battle may have been considered to be not so heroic back in the day. Gra...

Re: Protective equipment for blunt steel sparring

That knee pad looks like a good idea. Would really suck to get your cap knocked off.

Re: The power of the untrained man

I think Murphy said it best. Professionals are predictable, it's the amateurs who are dangerous.

Re: Who are YOU training to fight?

I'm training to fight Waldo. Even though I know this is unrealistic because I'll never find the bastard. I train assuming that the person I would be fighting will always be bigger, stronger, faster, and better than me. Which not only makes me train harder, but is sort of realistic as I hardly ever h...

Re: Who are these sword instructors on movie sets?

Oh, I don't disrespect them. Just the hype around them. Anyone who practices assassination, sabotage, and intelligence gathering in hostile locations for a living would surely be fairly competent and have a good deal of skills under their belt. If they lived for any length of time that is. I'd just ...

Re: Important new article on the Crusades

The canabalisim is new to me(though not suprising in the least). Any reasons on why they did this? Did they need food or was it just tactical terror warfare? Basicly I try not to take a moral stance on anything in history. Whatever someone might have done you can almost be assured that everyone else...

Re: Yet another would-be swordsman.

Get a lawn mower blade and a grinding wheel, like in sling blade. Then a watermelon. Poor man's sharp cutting. <img src="/forum/images/icons/smile.gif" alt="" />

Re: Who are these sword instructors on movie sets?

Oh yeah, if it was knights then they could have taken down abrams and we'd be ok with it. The guy did fight native americans, so I kinda figured he had experince against various sorts of melee weapons. I thought showing how good that samurai guy was with the bow and arrow was more realistic then hav...

Re: Dagohir?

Ok, just this one last thing. This is one of their groups. I'm guessing there were no girls within 60 miles of where this picture was taken.

Just when I'm ready to give-up on humanity, I remember how much they make me laugh.
