The temptation to try a few practice swings must have been incredible, you showed remarkable restraint sir, well done to all involved

[williampanagopoulos]

....I say this.. with full meaning in my heart
Curse you that you got to be up so close to such wonderful swords that I'll probably never get a chance to....

My envy is as strong as is my gratitude that you guys video'd all of this...

after coming back from practicing reglas I decide to clean my montante while watching youtube.
Federico post this
I guess today is montante day for me
Great video

My fratello in spadoni, I'm half a world away from Italy but if I ever get the chance you bet I'm visiting that museum

Really amazing video. The camera work and the depth of observation is fantastic. Thank you!

This was incredible! What a collection of beautiful swords in amazing condition. Thanks for post Federico-amazing!

Someone should make a 3D print of these treasures, to more accurately reproduce them.

Mi chiedo che utilità avessero delle armi talmente ingombranti, erano solo di rappresentanza immagino, indubbiamente hanno un grande fascino!

Casually I saw yesterday several artistic representations of montantes with finger rings on the crossbar. They are on representations of the sons of Jacob on the Museum of La Seu d’Urgell. From mid cinc-cents catalan religious art
