Conogre, you're back...
Re:swordplay- I've trained with ARMA, but I also practice with sword collectors in my area using different weaponry besides the European variety. Usually you start off with trainers, blunts, carved wooden swords and padded sticks depending. Live blade takes skill and control for both you and your partner/s. With antiques you rarely make contact so don't be afraid to use them, handling and figuring out how to use them will make you appreciate them more.
