Jan 6, 2012 at 17:31 comment added Wesley Obenshain The primary focus of most martial arts (and all weapon-based ones I'm aware of) is to hurt your opponent. While it might give you practical ideas about how to use the weapons, the primary focus of MAs practice is to turn your trained actions into reflexive ones. This is not a good idea from a safety perspective.
Jan 6, 2012 at 13:56 comment added Sardathrion - against SE abuse @C.Ross: I have been in too many LRP unsafe fights because of douchebags that "adapted" what they learned via a filter of stupid in SCA/Historical martial arts. It is a good idea to look at those sources but remember that they are unsafe. This is not aimed against you at al, just a general jadedness of my part ^_~
