My name is Tim, and I have been fencing with longsword and dabbling in other weapons, in and out of armor, since I was in middle school, and been a student of Historical European Martial Arts for about 16 years. Recently I have opened a club to train students on longsword. I do so for free to anyone who is willing to come!
Unfortunately, equipment is expensive, but it is so important for me to help keep my students as safe as possible while giving them the chance to have fun and spar!
Here is what I am looking to purchase depending on the success of this campaign:
2x Gloves ($200+ each) https://www.woodenswords.com/product_p/spes-gloves.v3.htm
4x Knee/Elbow guards ($26 per pair) https://www.woodenswords.com/SPES_Hard_Elbow_Guards_Pair_p/spes-elbow-h.htm
2x Gorget ($40 each) https://www.woodenswords.com/product_p/pha.gorget.roughneck.htm
2x Jacket ($360+ each) https://www.woodenswords.com/product_p/spes-j-fg.m.pro.htm
As you can see, it is quite expensive, a bit over 1300 dollars, not including shipping! With these pieces of equipment, I can safely train my students, and feel comfortable enough allowing them to spar.
So if you want to help us be safe and learn some cool moves, please buy this shirt, and if you are feeling extra generous, feel free to leave a tip :D
You can join our fencing Facebook group as well!
