Battlesword Philly

Hello, Warriors and fellow combatants, as stated in our last post we have some pretty big ideas going forward, one of those ideas we are tossing around is the idea of opening up a retail store. A brick and mortar store that will seek to serve most, if not all of the combat sports in the area and beyond. There are very few proper HEMA/SCA/Sword shops in the US let alone on the east coast. As combat sports have a rising interest, we figured this may be a good time to provide that service.

We want to create a friendly environment where people of all skill levels can come to check out gear and weapons and get a proper feel for them before purchasing. Which is one of the main reasons we want to start this. We rely entirely on reviews and other people's opinions of gear to purchase online and hope it's something we'll like and not waste our money.

With that being said, what kind of equipment and services would you like to see if you walked into a store like this. We will be primarily focusing on HEMA/SCA and other sword sports, but we also want to serve some of the other adjacent communities.

We stand by our trans friends and warriors and want them to know that we are a safe place that is free of judgment. We will not allow bigotry in our house and will fight by your side. We thankfully haven't had any issues with this but will not hesitate to remove someone if they are bringing harm to anyone in our space.

Hello, all! It is
We are so proud of our students and colleagues who courageously live their truth; it is an honor and a privilege to stand by you, always! We so look forward to studying with you in person again so that we can help you discover more artistic tools that you can use to explore your autonomy, to express yourself, to feel empowered, and to develop the skills you need to inspire young trans aspiring artists watching you on stage and screen.

We're at Clark park in West practicing with our new South Coast Swords
We'll be here for a bit if you wanna stop and say hi.

We're skipping the debates tonight and settling things the old fashioned way, sword duels! Who wants to come fight about stuff?

Were looking forward to running our first dedicated class tomorrow, who's gonna make it out for this event?

Fighting swamp monsters is the real reason we learn swordsmanship.
