Book Reviews of Cold Steel: The Art of Fencing with the Sabre (Dover Military History, Weapons, Armor)

Book Review: A great discussion on classical sabre
Summary: 5 Stars

This was a great read. I loved how the author described the pommel of the weapon as the pUmmel because when someone foolishly closes you use it to pummel them with it to teach them their proper distance. It is a great discussion on late 19th century fencing.
