My rant on fencing with "Fechtschul Rules"

Problems with trying to recreate a historical ruleset in modern times
5

Tuesday Morning Sword Rants is a new series that gives me an opportunity to dig in to topics that I either started writing about and couldn’t get the words together, started and stopped on, or otherwise couldn’t put pen to paper for. Short in length, unedited, and accompanied with a nice cup of coffee, I hope that these little discussions can get our morning brains working and provoke some thoughts on each subject.

Do you think there is a place for fechtschul rules in modern times, or a best way to practice it? Or how gear can enable or influence our fencing, either generally or when trying to recreate “how they fenced” in 1565?
