You sir are a true warrior! You're to hard on yourself! Facing 2 opponents (skilled ones at that) is no easy feat no matter what weapon you're using. You fought extremely well. And not just with one weapon but many. I would be more than happy to be half the martial artist that you are.

Who'd have thought the winner is the most humble and simple of weapons: The thermonuclear bomb

As known in ancient time the long range weapon wielder, also have short sword that easy to unsheated, this short sword often positition at waist side or back. When there is attack that need counter using this sword sword the ancient warrior will use it in flash of seconds.

I’d love to see more chain weapons. Like the Meteor Hammer, the Rope Dart, the Kyoketsu Shoge, and the Manriki Gusari!

Just recently discovered this channel, and I really like it. Keep up the great work! As far as weapons to try in the future, how about the mace? It's one of my favorites.

Great video! I love this channel! 🔥⚔😎

Guan Yu spear is my favorite.

It's true in a fight distance has its advantages. The bow & arrow or any type of spears or something like it is good to keep your enemy away. Addition to that having an acceptable range for defense.

The flail was very impressive, it seems like it's the sudden shock factor that really carries it since it's unfamiliar in its angles. I wonder if the ceiling for its effectiveness is lower though, if the opponent becomes more familiarized with it

The hook swords, twin hooks, fu tao, hu tou gou (tiger head hook). would love to see someone who technical and professional with them use them in combat

it would be lovely to se some tiger head swords! being double blades and also having the chance to extend them when you link them together

This session must have been fun 😂

Good video. The best weapon I think is a bow staff. It has reach and works close quarters, plus you can attach spear, or blade to it.

In England the Glaive was a Brythonic Celtic weapon. Was apparently wielded by the Welsh until 15th century. There is a mention of a warrant from the first year of Richard III's reign, dated 1483: ‘It has been argued that the glaive had its origin in Wales, and that it remained a national weapon until the end of the XVth Century. Grose mentions a warrant (Harleian MS., No. 433) issued to Nicholas Spicer, dated the first year of Richard III's reign, 1483 for enrolling of smiths for "the making of two hundred Welsh glaives" - twenty shillings and sixpence being the charge for thirty glaives with their staves, made at Abergavenny and Llanllowel’

I'd like to see the three section staff practiced

I'm curious if they'd try the muskets next

I need a few of these weapons for my own practice, but my heart will always belong to the two sword technique I am working on with uchigatana.

The best would be a long pike for formation combat. And a full knuxkle guard rapier for personal defense dueling.

you're the best! so cool!

i'd be interested in seeing the effectiveness of the kanabō in combat

Kusarigama. I see demonstrations with it, but I never see freeplay.

Flexible weapons like that are hard to free play with. Can't pull shots, if you go too hard you risk damaging your partner, if you go too soft they might not respect the weapon. Very high demands for accountability from everyone involved and even then shit will still happen.

Historically Guan Yus weapon was probably a spear of some sort😂

Use a shorter spear. A spear around your height will still give you tremendous reach advantage over other weapons.

Looking for the king of melee weapons in the category of pole arms is a good place to start, but have you considered that one of the best weapons of there just might be a really big sword? The Greatsword was used in situations where it could fend off multiple attackers with wide swearing motions that creates an area of denial with its long blade. And it’s good against pole arms and charging Calvary as well.

Was the first one trying one handing the katana vs a polearm? xD

The Dragon Glaive is King

To be clear, the Yanyuedao or dragon glaive, often named Guan Dao after Guan Yu, was never actually used by Guan Yu. It appeared during the Ming dynasty, when the Romance of the Three Kingdoms was written, and they gave this weapon to Guan Yu on the print illustrations of the books. Crescent shaped glaive are a late Song dynasty innovation mostly. This weapon is mostly associated with Guan Yu by tradition however.

There are glaive-like weapons dating to the Han Dynasty and even the Zhou Dynasty. These versions of the glaive were one-sided blades attached to poles, but didn't resemble the later versions used by the Song Dynasty. The Han Dynasty version looks like an Egyptian Khopesh mounted to a pole and the Zhou and earlier era versions look like a hooked knife mounted to a pole.

The dragon glaive (guan yu's weapon) was a weakness that it requires wide swings to build power. This may create more opening for enemies to enter. The spear and the giant flail on the other hand? Well you basically point the weapon at the enemy all the time, so it's more difficult to get in. The dragon glaive is really not meant for fighting (unless you're supremely skilled), it's main use is to cause great damage.

How about a naginata? Similar to a dragon glaive but narrower. Thicker than a spear, narrower than something like a Guan Dao or Glaive. Be an interesting balance experiment

The strongest weapon is the mind.

What if, is you hold the spear like the dragon glaive? Or like Cu from the Fate serie? I see it very often, that the spear is holded in the middle, and not the end, in fiction. What is reducing the reach. But looks like to give more option for movement. Or using it like a staff. Even in some real life clips, like this, are they holded closer to the wielder. I only dont know, if that is only for show. Or usable.

Less weapons than tactics and formations. Each side with a spear and a sword. How do combined arms create openings for the weapons?

And gear. A flail and a glaive were a lot more effective against heavy armored foes than a common spear. Good Armor can ignore most pokes from a spear, the glaive and flail brute force on the other hand, even if it donsent cut you, the impact alone can shatter bones.

What is the king of weapons? The answer is the weapon bearer🗿

how about greatswords?

what about long axe？

Best all round is the sword, spear is best for ease of use, low skill level to use it lethally and has longest reach, word word for spear in Chinese is actually ‘Gun’ funnily, a gun certainly has longest reach for an infantry weapon

Spear, purely because of logistical reasons.

My slong

The English longbowman made everything irrelevant. The French knights were like celebrities of the day. Well trained and educated a part of the aristocracy just like everywhere in Europe. The English longbowman was a peasant. Basically. Low class. But they trained with the bow sooooo much and were lethal with it they wiped out thousands of French rockstar knights. This shock went through Europe and ushered in the demise of tbe knight. And rhe rise of the peasant soldier. The crossbow was almost as good as a longbow and required minimal training. Then of course the gun ended all of the men at arms and knights that remained. Technology was embraced and the gun became the norm. To give these peasants an air of status they dressed them in uniform and forced line warfare. The aristocrats became the officers and that is a brief history of warfare. The middle finger as a swear comes from this. A bounty for every English longbowmans middle finger was given. It has to be the middle finger since it was huge from the muscles and tendons that became a signature of the longbowmans prowess. When the English lined up to fight the French the English would raise rhe middle finger in defiance of rhe bounty and that they still had there’s.

It doesn't. A bow unit without proper set up is vulnerable. Infantry and Cavalry were still very relevant. Like weapons, all units have their role. Evaluating a heavy armored and shield infantry unit by it's ability to inflict damage is like evaluating a goalkeeper by how many goals it scored. It's not it's purpose. Like wise the comparison with weapons. Yeah, the spear is nimble and harder to block. But it is less effective against shields and armored foes than the glaive or the flail. And about the battle of Agincourt (that i presumed you were referencing) we must remember that the french were cocky and charge archers on fortified positions, with infantry protecting the archers front line, through a large mud field. And it had rained on the prior to the battle, making the french not deploy their crossbows. So context is important. It was not "just" because bow > all.

Todd Cutler and his friends did an entire series that debunks the oversimplification of the Battle of Agincourt in the popular media as solely being due to longbowmen superiority. Plenty of myths surrounding this battle.
