Haven't personally done it but from what folks have said, the armor helps but shit still hurts.

Video above shows our man throwing spinning shit and knees and doing more damage with buckler punches / backfists, knees, and clinch takedowns than with the sword.

Yes, it hurts. The armor does help a lot though. Swords don't really hurt, half the time you don't even realize when you get hit with them. Maces, axes, and falchions hurt a little bit, mainly with big hits. Two handers hurt like hell when they swing hard, getting hit with a hard shot by a two handed axe hard feels similar to eating a roundhouse kick. Getting hit with one in a helmet would probably be like getting headkicked while wearing a football helmet I suppose. Besides that, punches, especially with shields give decent concussive force to hurt with a hard punch. Same with kicks and knees. Swords are fast but just don't have the mass to hurt.

Hits on armour are cool, you almost don't feel them, unless it's a halberd.

What people do however is aim for the gaps. If they're nice they just do it with good technique but some fully wind into it. Then it can be decent damage. Usually just mad bruising but I've seen a broken collarbone. Depends on the level of competition and mutual decision as it happens.

I punched a friend in the chest on sat, and bent the brig plating into his solar plexus, titanium armour is great at being light but people lie about it's strength imo. He had to sit for a bit.

I've TKOd someone with a hit to the head, but never experienced similar. As a bigger dude with a tank build I'm mostly cool.

You can hold the sword and punch fine.

Most of the sport if you're not dueling or pro fighting is judo though.

Yea i figured this is a grappling heavy activity looking at vids on youtube. Wrestling/judo/sambo likely works best
