The can of chili should be a can of beans, obviously. Other than that, good chart!
The longsword second from the bottom seems pretty heavy for that profile tbh. Montante/Zweihänder (last one) is also on the upper end of usable weight. Bordering on ceremonial/parade sword
Montante where definitely used for more than just ceremonial/ threatening looking guards or housecarl. But yes because of their size they were used almost more like a spear.
I’d say wielding a baby is more effective to get your point across than trying to swing an 8lb sword.
Obviously the weight distribution is different but my chain bike lock is just under 9 pounds. Legitimately would be my go to self defence weapon cause it’s horrifying once you start swinging it.
But what if your point is that the German principalities should be united under Gustav Adolphus?
Not too self: don’t bring a cutlass to rapier fight.
Just bring a polearm, and laugh at all of these
NGL, if they’re bringing a rapier then you might want to consider bringing a mace. Parry this, bub.
The rapier is going to massively outrange you. You’re dead, bub.
Only thing that would out range the rapier on this list is the montante and good luck moving that thing around like a rapier.
What’s everyone’s EDC?
My city commune recently forbade concealed carry, smh.
Then carry openly and proud. No need to hide your beauty
You’ll never take down the English heavy cavalry by swinging a baby, William.
