bushido_man96 Posted June 18, 2006 Posted June 18, 2006 Anyone ever thought of messing around with a single handed axe and shield? I played around with it the other day, and it was quite interesting. There are some things that you can accomplish with an axe that you can't with a sword. One thing is that you can use the axe head as a hook to hold the leg, and then shove them down with the shield.Also, you can hook weapons and shields with it as well. I think I will play with the idea some more. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
UseoForce Posted June 18, 2006 Posted June 18, 2006 Axees are cool, lotta power there. If it works, use it!If not, throw it out!
bushido_man96 Posted June 19, 2006 Author Posted June 19, 2006 Yes, good power, but with a slightly limited striking area. I also have my axe equipped with a thrusting tip, which makes for some interesting scenarios. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
UseoForce Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 Ever consider adding a second tip to the base of the handle? Just one more angle they'd have to watch out for, even if you rarely used it. If it works, use it!If not, throw it out!
bushido_man96 Posted June 19, 2006 Author Posted June 19, 2006 That would be an idea to try. I thought about putting a hammer end on the side opposite the blade, but it may get too unweildy. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
