About

Educational entertainment focused mainly on historical arms and armor as well as knives / tools, firearms, bows, and crossbows. I'm not claiming to be an expert, I'm just here to share my passion, debunk common misconceptions, give buyer's advice, and make hard working folks forget about the daily grind for a while. Please only use the e-mail address below for technical issues with videos, business matters and urgent messages. I get tons of comments and messages every day, so it's simply impossible to respond to (or even just read) everything. So if you send a message and don't get a reply, don't take it personal.

Video Description

Barely half a day after these medieval arms vs. kevlar armor shenanigans appeared on the Kentucky Ballistics channel people were already bombarding me with requests to make a response video. So here you go, literally as quickly as I was able to. :) Tests like that are always a blast, and this is no exception. Some of those "reproductions" though... yikes. That mace in particular... I've never seen a flanged mace so weirdly cobbled together. The spikey military flail was interesting though. Anyway, watch Scott's video, it's fun: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lh5aqlUUXug Where the other clips are from: Sickle to the Face... Yikes!
