For those not up on fencing rules.... you try and touch your opponent with a sword before they do.

It's a lightweight pokey sword. Actually fairly effective against many other swords, due to it's wieght, and the fast, deceptive fighting style. Unfortunatly, most other swords can simply break the blade if they connect, and as a master swordsman put it "Even a child can turn aside a thrust" (what he may have been ignoring is that there is usually another following it ;P). Mostly a dueling weapon, as opposed to a melee or brawling weapon.

im not in favor of flashy moves, i would prefer a sword with a blade at least as long as i am tall (im over 6 ft tall )

you come within about 6 ft of me and may god help your soul

PS for people not in US who are unwise to the US measurement system, im about 2 meters tall

Those are a pain to write on standard US keyboard though ;P.
And Demonicus: If you miss, you generally don't have time to recover for a second swing ;P. (On the flipside, you go through everything ;P. Weapon, shield, armor, and the horse they rode in on . Or at least break the arm holding the shield, all assuming you can swing the heavy thing).

Cool. How do you know all that about swords? Just theory or practice too?
