Folks, has anyone bought and viewed the 2 new DVD's from Chivalry Bookshelf?

Our group got a couple of copies, and have been watching them.

I am quite impressed with the production value, and skill of the presenters.

Overall they seem excellent acquisitions.

Has anyone else seen them? Feedback, comments?

Hugh

I have both CDs. I think the Ochs CD is very good. Both of the Ochs members seen on the CD were at the ARMA International event in 2003.

A couple of people on other forums have said that althought the grappling CD shows very effective techinques it is not historical. At the same time I know nothing of the skill level, etc., of the people who made these comments. Myself, I do not have the skill or knowledge to offer an opinion of any value on the CD.
