Hurstwic tested the idea of holding an axe behind the shield for quick access. Javelins are also a plausible way to triple-wield especially considering that they tended to be carried behind the shield. Sir John Smythe had a text suggesting using a pike with sword and dagger (though pike would get dropped soon after all were drawn).

Wouldn't really call that triple wielding. More like carrying ammunition. Otherwise an archer holding three arrows in one hand would be triple wielding as well.

​@@andrewli6606 One search term is "Madu, Parrying Weapon" which is likely an evolution of the javelin-behind-the-shield technique. The criteria here is that the primary weapon (sword) is able to attack, the shield is able to attack, and the held-behind-the-shield javelin can be used to attack, all without any changeout or even guard-position shift to warn the opponent. Hence, triple-wield.

General Grievous: heh, amateur

I was thinking he’d be holding the third weapon between his cheeks but I’ve been proven wrong

No that's were the fourth one goes

I raise you: 2 bucklers, 2 spears.

I forgot the video's name, but there is a video about a sword master making a practical 3 sword style. It involves dropping the weapon to confuse the opponent if you're wondering how it can be practical.

I'd honestly be surprised if you've never thrown like that

I remember when we used to call douelwilding "anime stuff"

Makes me think of the sword zuko had that could be split. would definitely be a confusing encounter when turned into throwing knives.

Being able to comfortably hold and throw twice as many knives before having to switch to a primary weapon seems useful

Quad wielding shaggy enters the chat.

A dagger and buckler held together in the offhand was a thing, if that counts.

When the wind is low and the fire's hot...

Experienced knife thrower here. With enough practice, you can effectively hold and throw up to three knives in one hand using a no-spin technique. I’ve done this in speed throwing drills to rapidly hit six targets. Would this be effective in combat? No idea! Most practice knives I have access to have girthy rubber or foam handles as opposed to the thin flat metal throwers you’d actually throw at targets, so my ability to safely practice this technique while sparring is limited. But it would be worth experimenting with!

throwing knives aren't very good weapons. They're cool for showing off, but I can't imagine them having any practical utility in a fight, outside of confusing your opponent. But you could also get lucky and get them in the eye, if they're not armored there.

I think the best historical example is dirk targe and claymore

Hey I got a good sci Fi matchup. Star Wars Ewoks vs Dune Freemen, don't let the teddy bear thing fool you Ewoks are kinda crazy

But if you throw one of your weapons is that really triple wielding at that point?

I could see you throwing the axe and now you have two knives just as well. I would rather keep my primary though lol. All I'm saying is you have options

Well, throwing your primary IS faster than reloading.

@ryangriffith1500

@EGRJ I guess faster than switching to your primary as well. Did we just create the new norm in defensive fighting? Throw your primary because it's faster than reloading or switching to secondary lol

I was thinking about a small buckler with a pointy end

Silly you…you’re talking to me through a camera…

Dual weilding 1 weapon hand is usually compromised in usually smaller/lighter weapon or it has another function bindi/trap etc. 3 weapons is A bad joke.

Quadra wielding knives then! Max the cargo capabilities!

Day 240 of asking Marcus to review Tau pulse weapons

I don't really know how to think about tat. Cause yeah its technically 3 weapons but the way you hold it its more like 2 weapons and one is a 2 use throwing knife? Or you can try and cut/stab with them and then its just worse dual wield?

At what point does it cease to be N-wielding and become spare/additional ammunition? Is an archer without a quiver wielding every arrow in his hands as a separate weapon?

Hey I have that same axe.

that is india haladie I think

Yeah? Ok larper

And here I thought you were going to put a weapon in your mouth or strap it to your chest or something 😂

Triple wielding seems like it would Bee Killer, but it would probably require a lot of extra room. You might have to go Zolo. Additional anime reference.

You've gotta use your teeth

Unless you’re holding a sword in your mouth… i don’t want to hear it. 😂😂😂 jk
