Whether you’re interested in historical martial arts or like make your fantasy characters more realistic (assassins like curved blades, don’t they?), I’m sure you’ll find this interesting.
We’re exploring various techniques with this exotic weapon and trying them out in practice fights, based on Paulus Hector Mair’s manuscript from the Renaissance (1540s). Some seem rather odd (like the entire concept to begin with), but it turns out they make more sense than you might think at first glance.
You can find the synthetic sickles (and various other HEMA gear) at Purpleheart Armoury (affiliate link):
