I actually grimaced real hard when you did the overhand twohanded axe swing. Just imagine the amount of force that came with that. But as these forms show, never discount a good old fashioned jab to the face.

Halberds deserve more primary screentime.

Truly a formidable weapon! It's great to see all the plays together! Using the halberd has been one of my fitness motivators since recovering from muscle injury 💪. Thank you for all your content!

It would be really interesting to see a comparison between these halberd techniques and say the techniques for a Naginta, which is a Japanese halberd and more often practiced by women.

[tuankhaichu]

Love your video! Can you show us the halberd technique against other type of weapon like sword, mace, shield or pike?

"It's just a fancy axe on a stick, how complicated can it be?"

[AaronPaulIbarrola]

So like, I've been wondering, where do y'all get the pants?

[BirchTreeReborn]

Play number 6 has me a bit confused. It seems like it opens up your guard by a great deal and for a long time leaving you open for a quick thrust.
Do you see play #6's flourish having any usage for attack? It seems like it's just meant for spacing unless that flourish is part of a feint.
