Kendo in the park?

HEMA?

Yup! Some modifications and different rules, but yeah, basically.

Oh my bad, on that last drawing you did I thought they may had been rawlings synthetic nylon wasters. XD; These look more like purpleheart armory trainers, unless I'm still incorrect lol.
Absolutely love this stuff though! <3 I used to be an avid longsword practitioner myself, but over the years I've been growing more attached to arming sword and buckler. (and occasionally sabre)

We have a couple of badasses here. :D

heh i always figured you to be using the steel wire wips by now :)

I do.

I would love to do stuff like this one day

Nice to see some fellow Longsword furs, the Purple Heart longswords beat the Rawlings by a mile in my book.
