How would you put it? You seem like someone who knows his stuff so I assume we are having more of a problem at communication than a difference of opinion.

What I mean is that swords were not immediately tossed aside the moment firearms came into use. They were both used on the battlefield together for centuries.

That's all I meant.

You only read what you want to out of everyone elses? I felt it prudent to reiterate.

Sorry, I admire defensive fighters but I've never been one to let the other guy call the shots. Especially not when you throw weapons in the mix. Plus, you won't always have a chance to feel out your opponent to set rythm.

You also dont always get the luxury to strike first!

Don't know, ask KOTF.

He has repeatedly.

Can't argue with that. Sh** happens. That's why you do learn to block

What your martial background mellow?

[mellow]

Lots of things. But Hapkido is what I hold rank in.

[Da Pope]

What sort of experience do you have with swords?

[mellow]

A bit of the Korean sword techniques in Hapkido, plus a little Kali and other knife systems.

[Da Pope]

Kumdo? Haidong Gumdo?

[mellow]

Kumdo? Haidong Gumdo?

Nope. . . . . . . . . .
Most of my experience with edged weapons comes from Kali.
