Join us for as explore Alfred Hutton's seminal work “Cold Steel: A practical treatise on the sabre“. Considered one of the seminal works on sabre in the Victorian period Cold Steel establishes itself as an advanced manual of swordplay to that fencers with a good grasp of foil can expand into sabre, along with epee, dagger, two-handed stick, constable's truncheon, and even mixed weapon bouting. Hutton's sabre was an attempt to reinvigorate the British broadsword tradition for use by both civilian fencers and military personnel by combing the Anglo sabre of his youth with 18th backswording and a sprinkling of contemporary Italian sabre. His method boasts a broad suit of techniques, with Cold Steel being one of the most comprehensive British manuals from the period. This livestream will focus on reevaluating the sabre section Cold Steel after having accumulating (hopefully) enough familiarity with the fencing of the period to read it with the requisite knowledge. We'll be going through the techniques, teaching methods, and applications in fencing. You can download a copy of Cold Steel from Come and join in the fun.
