I mostly do messer (based on Leckuchner's treaty), a bit of arming sword and buckler (based on the 1.33 manuscript) and recently started 19th century sabre (based on Waite's manual). They're all really fun but my heart goes to messer, it's such a fun weapon to use and the period really interests me.

What's keeping you from getting back in?

I'm just shy of 40 and haven't been athletic in 5 years and the way I used to practice got me injured a lot. We took the "blossfechten" too seriously.
