I wasn't kidding. I was becoming mesmerized by this video that someone on this thread showed me:

(not with the guy, but his sword play...although that also sounds gay)
Are you saying that this is not a good idea? First I wanted to learn the bare essentials for combat only. But now after seeing these videos that are more artistic, I'm becoming more interested in such forms.
Most of this is for fun and I'm looking to get good to play battlegeek with these guys:

Then for the long run, should there be a TEOTWAWKI situation, it would be a good skill to have should I run out of ammo.
