anotheranonDid my first historical fencing in over a month, and in my zeal to do all the styles I've not done lately, I mixed it all up.
So, note to self: pick one weapon per session. Do not try to fence smallsword, then saber, then rapier, and whatever you do don't toss in modern foil as icing. You will scramble techniques and fail at all of them.
Especially against a lefty.
Costume note: using twill tape as garters prevents me having to pull up my over-the-knee socks every couple of bouts. It's a good thing.
