In this long knife and hatchet duel the Viking showcases his improved triangular footwork against the fast hands of Erique. Both men had been fighting for nearly an hour so this was one of their last sets. We encourage all of our viewers to take the good with the bad and always continue to TRAIN TRAIN TRAIN.

In this video there is a lot to take away. The Paladin(in blue) keeps his rear hand low instead of guarding his face but has quick feet and reaction time. Erique has faster hands but less mobility on the feet. Each fighter scored points and showcased their skills in their first ever steel duel.

Long hidden video has surfaced of an Agon(contest) from years ago. An idea was hatched that these men would fight but with a twist: their level of alcohol content would increase depending on the amount of time they had been training. James being the longest was completely inebriated, Charles was severally inebriated and Erique was entirely sober. Enjoy the video for what it is men getting together to have some fun.
