umm, not sure on that, but I did take fencing in college. Granted, that was a long time ago, when I was in better health, and I did lose every match, but then again I was fencing the teacher every time

Might want to stay even further away than that. I have long arms (I stand somewhere between 6'4' and 6'6") and I have at least one sword that is chest high on me. And then there's the bullwhip.....

Shadows, I don't have one quite that large, but I do have the 40" broad sword from Starfire. Weighs nearly 10 lbs. 40" blade, and yes I can swing it fairly effectively. I help my cousin teach stage fighting every once and awhile. The moves we tend to use are actually quite effective if in a real combat situation, but we slow them down and use blunted edges.

I didn't know you were watching so close. [note to self~ It's NOT going to change, STUPID ] You can put it back.

I was just looking for a better way to say it.

Lord Snow you need 1 of our swords they will cut a starfire in half! A two handed claymore will only weigh about 6lbs!and we can balance them for stage(slower blade speed) or live steel combat .From March until the middle of June I have a master bladesmith from Alaska work out of my shop every year and have been learning from him.
