Weapon, steel blunt of high quality. Both participants has to agree to the others choise of weapon. Longswords, single hand weapons and messers in combination with buckler are the prefered weapons. No poleweapons, daggers or axes are permitted. No distance weapons are permitted.
This is Blossfechten. So no armor are counted as protective. Fencingmask, good gloves and groinprotection is needed. It is alowed to use bodyprotections like vests, coachingjackets or simmilar.
No time limits, a area agreed upon (flight means loss) and one second each and a neutral judge. Fight until first killing or disabeling hit. Double hits that should have ended the fight for both are losses for both combatants. Lets make this hard. The judge rule is decisive. Video camera to record the duel.
