    Hi Liam

    Sounds like an interesting workshop. What is your source material for the medieval weapons ? Is it drawn from the likes of Talhoffer or Codex Wallerstein ?

    Hi Quillo
    Jonathan is actually teaching this aspect of the workshop and he should be on the forum over the next couple of days. He been teaching and training for the past number of years and is very skilled. We been talking for the past year of doing a joint workshop on this. So I get jonathan to answer your questions in detail when he hooks up to the forum soon. If you can make it up you be more than welcome.

    Hi Quillo
    Spoke to Jonathan tonight and the training and teaching is from Talhoffer and other German and Italian Masters from I believe 11th - 13th Century. He also teaches material from 15th Century Masters. Hope this helps.
