DequitemLike all my fights on this channel, this is an non-choreographed medieval fight. The rules in this one were simple, the knight can attake all bodyparts exept the faces and all techniques of historical combat were allowed. To make this possible the knight used training weapons from Dominus Gladius. dominusgladius.com/flanged-mace-ver.2 The first fight was won by the peasants, because the knight tryed to hold back, but not in the second. If the peasents are afraid and dont charge all at once the knight can take one after another and win the fight. The crossbow wouldnt nessecary change the game, you still need a lucky shot and hit a weak spot with only one bolt.

Out of nine passes to shoot the scene from different camera angles, only one spear throw ended up in a gap in my armour and would have killed me with a sharp point. The spear hit my inner leg and left a big bruise. If it had been a sharp spear head, I would have bled to death. On all the remaining 8 passes, the spears slipped off my armour and did no significant damage. After the ambush and spear throwing we recorded 7 more duels.

Yes I beat him with the Zweihänder / Montante a couple of times, but he is defenetly the fast and deadlier fencer with longswords. I had to close the distance as fast as possible to beat him in close combat.
The swords are made by Sigi Forge and Regenyei armory.
The weight and size of these weapons are historical accurate. Onehanded Axes and maces in the 14th century had to be this small to be agile and quick to use. Twohanded weapons can be heavier, but even there u need a light weapon. A sledge hammer don't work in a fight were every quick thrust can end your life.

Novgorod is one of the oldest cities in Russia and traded extensively with the Holy Roman Empire in the 14th and 15th centuries. German clothing was the dress of the noblemen in Novgorod, but they had their own beautiful style of armour. My opponent in this duel is a harness fencer and reenacter of the late medival Novgorod. My armor is inspired by differend armor pieces of the Holy Roman Empire in the 15th century.
After the shaft of my poleaxe broke in the first recorded fight of the day, I only had a one-handed sword and a dagger at hand, so we started another duel. The weapon combination is familiar from the character "Peacekeeper" in the game "For Honour". It was still an interesting weapon combination and a nice duel with a perfect stab into my opponent's eye at the end.
