À propos de cet audio
Single-edged medieval swords are a long-underrepresented weapon category in the history of combat and warfare.
This may be due to aesthetic preferences, to the availability of extant examples, or even to the complexity of their categorization. The winds, however, are changing, and with the rise of HEMA and a new interest in niche aspects of medieval life, falchions and messers are returning to some level of prominence.
The guest of today's Armoury Roundtable episode is the legendary James G. Elmslie, sword community veteran, swordmaker, and the author of the Elmslie typology, which sets out to categorize this elusive type of medieval weapon.
In this episode, James and host Gabriele Culot discuss messers, falchions, they value of sowrd typologies, and much more.
