Its really hard to grab a spear but in such situation like that the spearman is better off to simply kick, grapple or else stab him with his own dagger. In a real fight, that could mean the difference between life or death, literally.

In reality both may end up with fatal hits

One thing I should mention for context is that these fights were filmed across an evening and some of the fighters have relatively little experience either with the spear, or at fighting against a spear. As the evening went on people generally got better at both (which of course slightly cancels out!). Generally the spear loses a lot of advantage when backed into a smaller space, but as you can see, even in confined spaces the spear can do okay, and of course getting the spearman into a confined space is very difficult, especially if the spearman fights offensively. Generally the rule for the swordsman or knifeman is to close distance, but doing so without getting skewered on the way in is quite difficult. You'll also notice that when the spearman gets hit, it is very often on their lead hand/arm, which is most exposed.

Admit it, the bowie knife was just for fun :P I appreciate this video, it shows very clearly the advantages of the spear, and shows that without a shield its really hard to defend yourself. I have to things to say about this: -All the people using swords were stuck in their sword vs sword techniques and non of them tried being more flexible, mainly trying to parry with the sword in all cases instead of dodging or perhaps grabbing. -Would be very nice if you show how a shield comes in to play in those scenarios.( now that they have a good defense, and that the spear is one handed instead of 2)

they seem hesitant to attempt to close the distance after a parried or missed strike from the spear. easier said than done i suppose

If there was actual spear it would be scary as heck to close the distance, if you weren't already in motion to close the distance the spearman can just back off and give another thrust and it will even more dangerous because you can't dodge when running toward.

Except for the Bowie guy, i wonder why people didn't seem to try to grab the spear. Many times they managed to get past the spear tip, but few actually tried to grab it. Especially the longsword fighters seem to have their hands glued to the sword. And its not that i do not know that the long sword loses effectiveness if you only use one hand on it, but there were so many opportunities missed where they could have bound the spear by simply grabbing it.

@Cambria358

Probably because they felt that the sword was long enough where they could strike successfully without having to grapple, with a knife, you have a lot fewer options and barely any reach compared to a sword so neutralizing the spear is a must for the most part

I agree that the swordsmen should be trying to grab more - you see that the sabre fencer (Martin) did try it a few times and sort of succeeded. It's harder said than done though, against this very light and quick type of spear - it's easier against heavier polearms like partisans or bayonets.

I am not saying it is easy to do, but from the video they missed quite a few opportunities in which they could have done it, if they had just let go of the bottom of their hilt. My problem is more with the lack of attempt. When Martin (the fencer, thanks Matt) did it, usually he got a tap on the arm with the spear, which would injure him, but not mortally. I think its a small price to pay to bind your opponents weapon and finish them off. I mean, otherwise they usually lost.

spears: win against swords Knife: im about to end this mans whole career

What I find very interesting is that "real life" combat isn't graceful and choreographed. I mean like, when you only ever see sword combat in games and movies you forget that, like in this video, actual combat is very sporadic and clunky if that makes sense? Like the guy with the knife trying and failing repeatedly to grab the spear shaft, if it was a game or movie he'd have grabbed it first time and dispatched the other guy swiftly or something.

Why do you find it so interesting? It seems natural to me. Real combat doesn't have to be clunky and sporadic, it can be graceful and elegant, but only if the fighters forego combat effectiveness to do so. I twirl quite a lot when sparring, particularly with one-handed weapons. Since my experience is so low, that whenever I do go and do these things I try to be as posed and elegant as possible, to try and avoid looking like an inexperienced amateur.

Matt is too OP. Excellent fighting.

Something I've noticed with 2 vs 1 sparring is that usually it seems like the team of two is less aware than the team of one. It's almost as if people subconsciously let their guard down more when they have teammates, because they don't feel like the fight is riding on their actions alone. I suppose it also allows a sort of "feint" in the sense that someone might pretend to not be paying attention to a second attacker, and then suddenly strike at them. Just a theory. But it definitely seems like practicing to fight as a group against a single opponent is an important part of training, despite the fact that it could appear simple at first glance.

One of the bowie moves where the knife man just dodge the spear and let it pass near his right shoulder is just marvellous.

scholagladiatoria Matt, just wanted to say that was some VERY impressive knife work. It goes to show that skill can overcome the advantages of a dissimilar weapon.

I'm actually more surprised about how little the advantage of the weapon counts against skill and experience... Matt and the one guy with the backsword were clearly superior fighters compared to their opponents, but I'd have assumed the range of the spear would even it out more.

wow it almost looks like the spear was more effective 2v1 than it was 1v1. Seems to do pretty poor against a short range weapon, knife, over a longer ranged sword. Ironic. Incredible to see how fast a knife fighter can close on the spearman after a miss jab or parry.

But it's not ironic, I think that it actually makes sense. With a shorter weapon you must close more to the spearman, so you must do more pressure, while with a sword you don't need to close that much, and also a sword at a very short range turns ineffective as a spear, so you aren't doing so much pressure, and the spearman can counter you or escape more easily.

The spearman's inexperieince was really showing with these long, obvious thrusts that were deflected time and again. You'll see (or at least my impression was) that in a confined space, the spear actually did much better. The reason being that the inexperienced user changed tactics to much faster, shorter, harder to deflect thrusts. That gave the swordsman a ton of problems trying to close in.

AlwaysAmazingSlyWit Yeah, in my experience the best way to get pas the head of a pole is to draw them into an extended thrust, preferably a lunge, then avoid, then check the pole and close as they try to recover. You can run faster than they can shift their weight back to be able to move again. Lunging locks you to the ground and should not be attempted with such a short spear. You don't even have to grab the spear to control it, just push it offline and ground it if you can.

Brutal knife work, mate :D

This reminds me of a convention I had gone to years ago, in which one of the panels included amateur boffing. A group of 20 or so from the crowd who payed a small fee were entered int a tournament and offered padded practice swords to compete with; but one rather cheeky individual entered the tournament with a 6 1/2 foot long spear that he had crafted himself. Being that everybody competing (myself included) were complete amateurs, nobody stood any sort of a chance against him. It'd be all of three seconds in the ring and he'd simply stick you in the side before you could close the gap. It felt particularly unfair! I suppose in hindsight, it was something like bringing a gun to a knife fight.

you should put a counter meter to show how many points each person has, it's hard to see exactly when contact was made and when it was parried last second. i still enjoyed the video through

I really liked the Saber/Backsword part (and the Bowie Knife), well done!

Simply this was terrific. To all who participated ... awesome ! I really enjoyed it. You really get to see the strengths and weaknesses of each weapon. Critical distance and own your space. This exercise only impresses upon me that ancient warriors relied on “defence in depth”. Spear first. Sword second. Knife third. You get a real sense of Roman Centurion tactics. Toss your spear. Close the distance and stab with your sword. Use the knife in ever closer quarters. Ditto for the Samurai : Sogu; tachi: wakazashi: tango. If there is ever a case for bayonets on rifles this is it ! Keep up the great work !

As expected, your students have good skills. I like to watch these sparrings with different weapons.

Brandon Sanderson sent me here. Awesome channel! Subscribed.

Interesting that the knife fared the best. The guy may have had superior skills and tactics but I think there is something inherent about the weapon too. It makes you give up on any kind of attack apart from one where you can move past the head of the spear, possibly taking control of the shaft with your free hand, and then close in. With the sword they kept trying for sword strikes from afar and kept getting caught by the spear while lunging. But due to the sheer range disparity, the knife forces you into pure dodge mode until you can somehow step over the spear or otherwise get around it. And dodging is certainly possible since the spear's points of attack are fairly limited since it can't cut or slash from the sides. Obviously a spear would probably still most often defeat a bowie knife, but it's an interesting exercise in psychology. You could adopt the same strategy with a sword but it's less instinctual. But now take the scenario of sword vs knife and that strategy doesn't work anymore for the knife at all. The sword would dominate since dodging would become much harder for the knife wielder. Almost like rock paper scissors. Spear beats sword. Knife beats spear. Sword beats knife.

Damn Schola you are good. The Bowie vs Spear shows how careful you are, those dodges even through you failed some you tried to force it. You are a Rogue.

1812 overture is great. Great video.

I'm a little surprised that only the knife wielding fighter actually tried to grab the spear and just turn it into a clinch. of course, with a knife one does not have to many options, but it seems reasonable to do the same when using a sword. Good Video, Thanks!

Anyway, thanks for the awesome videos! Big fan.

Amazing video!

Excellent demo there, goes to show never bring a knife to an unarmored spear fight, a good spearman will win almost every time. Given they were unexperienced they did a good job. Well done all involved

Love how you put music over the intro emblem! You should try to do it more often, it's rather weird to see just the emblem with no audio at the start of a video.

Three quick observations and questions based on them: One:. Would the confined space exercise not be better performed with the spear in a corner rather than in centre room against a wall? Two: Since spears are a battlefield weapon, would it not also be useful to try two spear wielders side by side or back to back to simulate having comrades in a skirmish or battle? Third and final: one skill taught in modern self defense classes to engage multiple opponents is stacking, or moving to try and keep your opponents single file relative to you. from the previous post I understand some of these students lack spear experience, but is a historical equivalent of "stacking" discussed at all in fencing manuals you've come across?

I would like to see a video about spears vs armored opponents. I've never really seen it in the movies and im unsure how would it look like. :)

It was quite educative, specially due to the various levels of experience against spears. I would have liked to see what kind of approach they would have come up with if it was more than one spear, as that should prove quite more difficult to approach. But I guess you need more spears for that.

The dagger vs spear fights were quite interesting. It really exposes the disadvantage of having a pointy bit at the end of a stick; the pointy bit is the only really threatening part if you're dedicated to jabbing. Soon as it's grabbed, the spearman loses all ability to fight back, and grabbing a spear isn't all that difficult. If you can parry a punch, you can grab a spear. Of course, give a staff fighter a pointy bit, and it becomes a whole different ball game.

One thing I personally don't really like about these sparring videos is that often the actions are really fast and it's hard to understand what's going on. It would be amazing if you could do like a commentary of the fight, maybe showing the action in slow motion and explaining moves, parries etc.. It will be much more interesting! Of course this is just my opinion. I love this channel, I check it every day :-D Cheers

one thing I noticed is that a lot of the people that fought with the spear would release the spear with their lead hand when making thrusts, which lead to them losing control of the weapon and often nearly resulted in a strike against them. What they should have been doing is what the dude that was fighting 2v1 was doing and sliding the weapon through their lead hand, that way they don't lose control and as the enemy closes they can easily draw the weapon back to shorten it and make it easier to defend in close range.

mmmh 1812 ouverture. nice :) Cool sparring too.

Thought that there was absolutely no way the knife fighter was going to be able to block any attacks, but then he does just that. Then I see it's Matt. Well that makes sense then :P

The song is the 1812 overture by tchaikovsky for anyone wondering

Thanks for sharing video,had fun watching. One question,the guy with knife is he fencer since youth or reflexes came with experience?(i ask because i heard usually when someone fencing they study it while still young to develop reflexes and technique,correct me if im wrong)

would like to see this video again when the people get more experienced in spear vs sword fighting

Good video, Matt! There's little HEMA spear-fighting on KZread, but this video sets a good example :-) May I ask you, how long and thick was the spear? I find that those which are even slightly longer and heavier change the fight dynamics dramatically, usually in favour of the spear-fighter (especially against multiple opponents) - up to a certain point when they become only useful in battle formations, of course. Besides, did you allow for strikes with the spear-head as well? I'm quite sure you know all about the devastating power of a heavy impact with a sharp and pointy pole-head, so I'm just curious why there were none in the video.

@scholagladiatoria

Hexates We didn't use strikes with these spears because we are simulating a typical small spearhead, which is essentially a short spike. It doesn't really do any more damage than hitting something with just the stick - it doesn't even weigh anything notable. In any case, generally if you're hitting with such a spear it's because you've lost the line to thrust and so that swordsman is just about to chop or thrust you - in that moment it's more wise to try and gain distance or otherwise defend, rather than trying to hit them with a blow that will not stop them.

i dont know why but the man with the knife reaching out to grab the other guys spear is funny to me

I think in your quarterstaff vs sword video, you mentioned that a single man with a staff fended off three men with swords (rapiers I think being specific). I'd like to see your group try something similar, if at all possible.

The knife did surprisingly well.

This is awesome!

Interesting to see just how quick the spear is for changing direction of attack, especially swapping between attackers. It seemed like quite a few of the hits were because people just didn't expect the spear to be able to do a 90 degree change of attack so fast. He was fending off one guy then suddenly swapped to the other, got a hit and then immediately back to the first before they could take advantage.

A few days ago I was having a debate with some one about knives and walking sticks and although a spear isn't a walking stick the video still seem relevant to our discussion

Now, now I know context plays its part here as always. But might it be advisable for a spear wielder to let go of his weapon once the opponent with a shorter weapon successfully closes, gets past the point and grabs the shaft? I mean the spear shaft, of course. At that close range having a longer weapon is hardly advantageous, better of trying to control the weapon arm of the opponent methinks? Just curious is all.
