Customer Reviews of Myth Of The Sword
Hank the Talking Head; not much more I'm mostly disappointed with this video. A good 80% of the video time is simply a close-up of Hank Reinhardt's face, as he talks to a point a few feet to the side of the camera. Another 10% is made up of pans across still images from historical drawings. The remaining video time is actual live action. What Hank is saying is usually interesting... but considering how little sword use they actually shot, I'm left wondering: Why didn't he just write a book with this material?
"Must" viewing for students of the sword & sword fighting.
Hank Reinhardt has spent a lifetime studying the history, development, and use of the sword from antiquity down to modern times. The Myth Of The Sword is an impressive and visual, 90-minute tour-de-force video presentation that combines Reinhardt's expert commentary with live-action demonstrations, beautiful examples of the various kinds and categories of swords, concomitant develop of sword-related armor, and the manufactured properties of specific types of swords ranging from Japanese katanas to European broadswords, sabers, and rapiers. Of special interest is Reinhardt's debunking of Hollywood induced misinformation about how swords were really used in combat. The Myth Of The Sword is "must" viewing for students of the sword, members of such organizations as the Society For Creative Anachronism, authors of historical novels with sword play scenarios, as well as the script writers, producers, directors, and actors of films with sword fight or fencing sequences.
