HEMA instructors fighting with the Polish saber - Lee Smith vs. Richard Marsden

This was recorded on June 12 2016 at the end of a seminar that Richard Marsden gave on the use of the Polish saber on foot at the Blood & Iron HEMA school (Historical European Martial Arts) in Burnaby, BC, Canada. Lee Smith (Blood & Iron) and Richard Marsden (Phoenix Society of Historical Swordsmanship) are experienced instructors and the co-founders of their respective martial arts schools. HEMA sparring has little to do with sport fencing. The weapons (shape, weight, balance) and tactics are a lot different. The focus is on martially viable techniques that would disable the opponent in historical combat with sharp blades, while trying to avoid getting hit at the same time or shortly after.
