Arms and armour videos VII: Pursuing the Knightly Arts


Another interesting and insightful series of online videos on arms and armour is Pursuing the Knightly Arts. These are the work of two US practionrrs of HEMA, Reece and Ben.

They look at fighting techniques and at matters such as the maintenance of armour. There is a delightful domesticity to these two long haired men, who are perhaps reminiscent of the ‘Hairy Bikers’ cookery programme, sitting down to a session of doing their chores, cleaning and polishing their armour. Their video ‘Covering our harnesd’ is full of useful insights, but all are interesting.
