My name is Artur Stopka. My interest in swords comes from the most basic instinct of a young boy; finding the best stick possible and fighting my friends with it. My favourite weapon to fight with is the longsword, with Polish sabre coming in close second. Always steel if possible. Love me a metal sword, metal music too. Metal is life.

-'Hi, its Mike! Pretty new to HEMA but loving it already! Cannot say i have a favourite weapon but if i had one to choose its hard not to fall in love with swiftness and artistry of polish sabre. Then again i MIGHT have a bias as a Pole myself.'

-'Siema, Michal z tej strony. Jestem nowy jezeli chodzi o moja przygode z HEMA ale na pewno lubie to co widze!
Nie mam ulubionego oreza ale gdybym musial wybrac? Polska szabla na pewno!'

- Mi chiamo Marcello, sono di Genova faccio HEMA da circa 2 anni. Ho iniziato con spada a una mano e mezza, ma adesso sto studiando Striscia seguendo il trattato di Rodolfo di Capo Ferro.
- My name is Marcello, I'm from Genoa, Italy, and I've been doing HEMA for about 2 years. I started with  Longsword, but now I'm studying Rapier following the treatise by Rodolfo di Capo Ferro.
