A longsword practice injury serves as a critical lesson on safety. See why protective gear matters when handling live steel.
This video documents a hand injury sustained during a recent sparring session. I was training with live steel swords that had been treated with three-in-one oil, but I neglected to wear a protective jacket. The resulting cut highlights the immediate risks involved when safety protocols are overlooked during martial arts training.
Beyond the injury itself, I discuss the necessary medical steps, including the decision to get a tetanus shot to prevent infection from the blade contaminants. This serves as a cautionary tale for anyone involved in HEMA or sword practice about the importance of proper equipment and health precautions. Consistent use of fencing gear remains the only way to avoid these preventable accidents.
