Hello all,
Been watching my Cold Steel DVD set, "Fighting with the Sabre and Cutlass". I love that DVD set, so clear and understandable, easy to follow, etc, etc.. Makes me want to get my sabre out and fire it up. Woth the money to get it if anyone is interested in self defense and fighting with sabres, etc..

KoA sells it in their book section for 54.95.

Kilted Kossack, it is a two disc set. I love it. Sort of boring at the first, just covering basics, a section on foot work, and repititious drills in parries and strikes, etc.. As Delongis says, it is to develope skill, muscle memory, etc.. Later he gets more active, including some disarming, grappling, etc.. I love it.

mrstabby: Been thinking the same - but the person that set up the page might not be there anymore and old code gets messy when not maintained. Might be a "repair subscriptions, destroy function X, repair X, destroy Y" situation by now - would mean a total overhaul. Nov 18, 2024 7:29:27 GMT

choseychas: Huh. Is there no fix on our side then? Or is it that you need to contact an admin since the auto system is down? Nov 18, 2024 3:58:50 GMT

eastman: problems with the forum software are the cause, not a goal to limit the club. There is an error with the software that messes up activities that require the sending of email. Nov 18, 2024 3:57:36 GMT

alinkinthechain: I also do love Boston. I've traveled a bit and nothing feels as wonderful as that city to me. I'm lucky to live nearby Nov 12, 2024 15:28:16 GMT

txhighlander: Boston might be my fav. So much history, and clean! and great food. New York was cool for a day to see iconic landmarks Nov 7, 2024 17:00:22 GMT
