Fencing with the Threshing Flail: light heads are good and historical
The threshing flail was a widely used weapon in the Fechtschule of the 16th century. Depictions range from single plates in Meyer to copper etchings of Virgil Solis.
People often think that sparring with these weapons is impossible and that light heads aren’t good to practice the threshing flail with. In this video I explain why I disagree with that notion.
Getting hit in the head with these practice flails did not heard. You do hear it in the fencing mask though.
