My male friend is taking me to the weekly friday night swordfights in town. Have you guys ever been to one of these? How many other guys are usually there? SOUNDS LIKE A FABULOUS TIME. Is it legal in IL??



See Ya.

Are we talking back alley, Society for Creative Anacronisms or Fencing? Although I have trained for years with both Japanese and European swords, I cannot concieve of a way to truely spar with "live steel". All attempts at kumate, have been either with kendo swords, wooden sticks and armor (SCA) or choreographed routines.

You male friend? Well, I hope the swordfighters loose the grip on their swords and fling it your way.

I've been in . . . 'real' ones!

I took foil fencing in high school and college then I studied kenjutsu for ~four years (until I moved) which is way different than kendo.
