About this experience

The axe changes the geometry of a fight. This session covers grip, hooking the opponent's shield or weapon, striking with the beard of the blade and closing distance. Drills are with padded trainers, and the axe-and-shield pairs in the final third use full protective kit.

Good as a second discipline after any sword session.
