On this day three years ago we had a lot of fun taking out the trash:

Yes, we're a lot better today :D
@bekopharm Btw: that looked like a sharp blade. Do you use this for training?
@ubo yes, in training but not with partners. For this there are "sharp simulators" that are basically plastic ones with a saw teeth like shape.
It really depends on what is trained.
e.g. not going to waste a sharp on a pell (beside some half-swording mebbe).
@bekopharm "plastic ones with a saw teeth like shape" π±
I don't think I would ever like to train with you! π
@ubo how comes? I've a rrrreally good record with the local hospital π
@ubo Here's a more educated description by Keith Farrell on such a sim: https://www.keithfarrell.net/blog/2017/03/review-black-fencer-sharp-simulator-longsword/
@bekopharm What? No way! π¨
@ubo well I suppose we can start out with foam wasters π

@bekopharm You didn't look old and weak to me. π
