Ave!
Just thought that I'd introduce myself. My name is Adam Bodorics, I'm from Hungary, as you can see. I can't exactly remember when did my mania for everything handheld and edged/pointy, the first totally accurate milestone was when I started making knives at the age of 11. I've had a very slow learning time due to absolutely unsupporting family, but hey, I'm a fanatic, so less than 10 years later it seems that I'll start my own company. Since that early day I first tried making daggers, then swords, later a few crossbows, about 5 years ago I started making armour.
About using them, which has more importance here... I started seriously training at the age of 14 at the Ludus Magnus, Hungary, but I have been using stuff to hurt others since..... ahwell, the first photo about me depicts a cca 1 year old beating his dad's head.:EG: Sadly I was arrogant and stupid enough to ignore advices about warmups, so my shoulders and knees and wrists are half dead now. As if I'd care... when they'll be a real problem, I'll most likely have the money to have them repaired.
Back to training. After 2 years at the Ludus, I realized that gladii will never be my favourite weapon. Since then I'm studying the Liechtenauer tradition, out of any school. I simply don't care for reenactment, nor for the internal fights most hungarians love soooo much. This is a slower way, but it seems that I'm going the right direction. Emphasis on "seems".:boing2: My favoured weapons are the longsword, the dopplehander, the poleaxe and the dagger. I'm starting to develop a liking towards messers and hand-pavises slowly.
...
After all, I'm glad that I found this forum, I hope that my presence here will be advantageous for both sides... preferably me. (bad joke, sorry)
(sometimes I words the mix up, and my english still needs improving, my apologies in advance for this and for my very, very dark humour...)
