Ep.12 - Medieval Single-Edged Swords: A Conversation With James G. Elmslie

Single-edged medieval swords are a long-underrepresented weapon category in the history of combat and warfare. This may be due to aesthetic preferences, to the availability of extant examples, or even to the complexity of their categorization. The winds, however, are changing, and with the rise of HEMA and a new interest in niche aspects of medieval life, falchions and messers are returning to some level of prominence. The guest of today's Armoury Roundtable episode is the legendary James G. Elmslie, sword community veteran, swordmaker, and the author of the Elmslie typology, which sets out to categorize this elusive type of medieval weapon. In this episode, James and host Gabriele Culot discuss messers, falchions, they value of sowrd typologies, and much more.

Ep 10: How Details in Antique Swords Can Influence Modern Sword Fighting - With Roland Warzecha (Dimicator)

Roland Warzecha is a world-renowned expert in historical swordsmanship, with 25 years of martial arts practice under his belt. He has also been a devoted re-enactor since the 1990s. His primary focus of research is medieval sword and buckler combat as outlined in MS I.33, for which he and his fellow instructor/researcher Cornelius Berthold have developed dedicated online courses which you can find here: https://dimicator.teachable.com/p/home Roland is well-known for exploring sword and shield fighting that predates the Fechtbücher (fencing manuals), such as close combat of the Viking Age and the High Middle Ages. He regularly examines associated weaponry in collections worldwide. Find a continuously growing number of sword documentations here: https://www.patreon.com/dimicator/shop?redirect=true Supported by international scholars and museums, he has published the results of his research in scholarly journals and books and has lectured at specialist conferences. As a long-term martial artist and swordsman, he has taught sword fighting across the globe. A key element of his training curriculum is the regular practice with sharp weapons. In this episode, Roland and I dive into his study and analysis of original antique swords, discover the small details that showcase the mastery of the craft of bladesmiths from the early Middle Ages, and discuss how these learnings influence Roland's approach to practice and his understanding of combat in the past.

Ep 9: Damaged Goodies: What Battlefield Damage to Antique Weapons Teaches Us - With James Hester

Having trained with swords and other medieval arms in a stage combat context since the age of fifteen while performing in fight shows throughout the New England Renaissance Festival circuit, James Hester encountered early pioneers of Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA) and began studying the works of medieval and Renaissance masters. His path then led him to academia and education, working at the Higgins Armory and other museums before journeying to England to complete an MA in Medieval Studies. He subsequently joined the Royal Armouries Museum, where he progressed over five years to become Curator of Tower Collections at the Tower of London. In 2015, James was awarded the Arms & Armour Heritage Trust Studentship to pursue a PhD focusing on late medieval martial arts at the University of Southampton, which he successfully completed in 2018. Alongside his academic pursuits, James has undertaken in-depth study and practice of diverse traditions, including Wudang Taijiquan and Internal Arts, Zen, European and Asian Philosophy, the Ars Memoriae, and meditation. These explorations have enriched his personal practice and broadened it from the pursuit of an interest into a comprehensive way of living. In this episode, James and host Gabriele Culot discuss his studies, focusing especially on his research into historical damage to antique weapons and armour, and what the signs of battles from the past can teach modern HEMA practitioners.
