Subject: [Broadsword_Heavy_Sabre] How good are these guys?

Hi, guys! I've been looking for videos of curved saber fencing - for
edutainment purposes :o) and found some that, to me, look like these
guys might know which end of the saber to hold. Since I am a beginner,
I'd like to ask the experts: are they for real? One of them, I believe,
is from the Stoccata School of Defence in Australia; others are from
some school in Ukraine.

Their guards seem... unorthodox, but they move fluidly, pretty to look
at. Russ, is that anywhere close to what you practice? Thanks!
Vadim.
