The hafla was small but wonderful, I think I saw some of the best dancing I've seen in a while! Linda and Xenia were there, and I felt okay kicking back and watching this time, because my knee is unhappy with the current weather

Ah, I want to sword fight!

My wife and I have been talking about doing this for years.

If he still has interest in SCA combat...get him a spear. I know quite a few who switched to spear for medical reasons. Can't swing a sword for bad shoulder, can't hold up a shield for a bad elbow, grip issues, etc.

My personal choice has always been a steel basket. Been using a light plastic one for med reasons lately (lighter sword, less shoulder strain)and they seem to work just fine.

I also know a couple of guys looking into artsy SCA things since they can't fight after multiple joint operations. Fencing? (yeah, I said it.)

He has a glaive. I think he might get back to SCA fighting again, but right now he says he's way out of shape and I think this would be a good way to get exercise without hurting himself. Also, they really had a lot of fun! It's a little more of a game on the field, and you can pretty much be whatever you want! He's considering a minotaur, since they were calling him a bull in a china shop while he was fighting.
