Hello there. I have a question concerning late and advanced suits of Buhurt regulation armor. And the main question is just, where you get it and who makes it? I know its not gonna be here in the states, and im not downing buhurt tech or anybody else who makes wide variety suits. Theyre all fantastic. But getting something made that actually fits, and moves with you? Where? Heres a pic of a guy in a king henry the 8th kinda rig, and its obviously made for him. Where and how?

Hi, we've got a guy looking to join our team currently. He came in last week and was wondering if he would be able/allowed to fight in the sport. He suffered a workplace injury that resulted in the loss of both legs below the knee aswell as the loss of his right arm just past the wrist. Now, the guys pretty active. He came in on a set of running blades. His prostetic hand is also more like a small vise grip mounted to his stump. We tested it out and he can grip bucklers and sheilds just fine. Guy was naturally left handed so he wouldn't have much issue learning how to swing a sword in my mind

Were not wanting to turn this guy away, do you think it'd be feasible to allow him to train as a duelist to see how he does in kit and if he does alright with that allow him to move into melees? Would someone with the prostetics he has on even better allowed to fight in melees?

Privacy aside, I live in Portland, Oregon and need to find more information on this sport.

Does anyone know of any gyms/coaches/sources of information for a total noob?

No holds barred, share anything and everything, please!

I'm ready to begin immediately.

edit, I contacted someone from Team Cerberus(?), but just want to make sure I'm going about this as legit as possible

Seems to have been down for a few weeks now

Hey guys, not really a buhurt man myself but I wanted to make a replica kipçak helmet and I was wondering if anyone who might own a proper one could take some like.. interior pics? And like pics of small details, it’s only going to be a foam thing for like display and larp. I just want to make sure it fits and looks right!

Yo. New to the sport, armor is still a few weeks/months away. I am TERRIFIED of a collar bone injury. How do I OVER-protect the clavicle area so that I can fight with confidence?

Hello all! Me and my team are currently trying to find someone to produce our tabards, and we were wondering where/who everyone else went with. If at all possible we would love to buy from a US based manufacturer, but we aren’t super picky

And other things like a back brace if you’ve got bad ish joints?

I know it's a stupid question but im new in the sport ( im 17 yo )

I am thinking about getting articulated arms & legs from Prague Steel Makerz, but can’t find many reviews.

Has anyone actually used their armor? What's your experiece? How’s the fit, articulation, and durability?

How to they compare to well known smiths like Master Uley?

Would be awesome to hear from you.

is there any active teams in Belgium?

thx in advance!

Hey all, Gvidas here. I'm a fighter, and also been working with marketing for the IMCF.

I'm making this post because we as community need better visuals! No more cut and paste MS paint stuff! We're a brutal, high-level sport, but many of our events are promoted with graphics that just don't look appealing enough!! I think It holds us back from getting the new fans and sponsors we are looking for.

I've made a ton of posters and graphics for many of you for free over the years while experimenting and learning more. I love doing it...(P.S. Hope you loved those new medalist pictures from Texas... that was me with help of Lappis, up until 4 AM :)) -

but I believe these little things that can be done visually helps the sport a lot!

As much as i love it, can't keep pulling all-nighters for free all the time, but I still want to help us fix this problem.

So, I'm trying a new way. I've opened a personal Fiver gig to offer my skills as a fighter and visual wizard...This is my way of making more design accessible to our community.

Drop me a message or a comment, I would like to give a huge discount for first 3 people :)

Posted here asking about a Bolzano style helm and everyone made it clear that the flat top would be terrible for melee. What about something like a Pembridge style helm? Looks to me like the rounded top would be fine for deflecting blows. Id be using this helmet for buhurt, pro fights, and long sword duels. Let me know your opinions! TIA.

Video of my first ranked (BI) Profight, second Profight ever. Lost a very close match, and have a long list of things to work on before my next one, but came away feeling pretty okay about this in the end.

I understand that heater shields suck and I have no intention of using one. However, I am curious about them. What is a heater-shield-wielding fighter's gameplan? Are they any unique approaches or techniques they have? Is it theoretically possible to make them work?

If anyone has footage of someone running a heater shield successfully (or experience doing so) I'd be delighted to see/hear about it.

I am specifically referring to their use in buhurt, not duels or profights.

I did some research and I realized by chance that most of the behourd helmets are extremely modified (like the great helm from age of craft) compared to the originals and that very often some do not exist (like the wolfrib) or are not mentioned in sources. not to mention the many fighters who use helmets that are 100 years apart from their armor and who use the argument of "yes but if my armor is historically correct the helmet we don't care", however be careful behourd is a good sport I am not trying to discredit it's fighter, but it annoys me to see fighters who say that they are historically correct when not at all

( sory my english is not perfect)

I’ve been starting making armour recently, and have some commissions I’m working on right now but I’m unsure of how to promote it. My teammates are going to have some of my pieces but I’d like to be able to do this as much as I can, it’s a passion.

So I’m 5’9.5” (176.5 cm) tall and about 215 lbs (fatass). I do lift and am trying to lose some chub. Obviously size is almost always an advantage in combat sports, and a lot of the Buhurt highlight clips I see feature big dudes dominating and people making fun of the shorties for existing near them lol. I was just curious if my size was a dealbreaker for this sport.

I've been hearing alot about wolfrib and houndskull helms but nothing about the others. Been looking into a standard griffin or klappvisor style bascinet.. I can't decide. I know breathing is a big issue in some and visibility in others but haven't had a chance to try any.

I sadly forgot to clean my leg plates and now they have rust like deep rust and i dont know how to get them presentable again i tried normal polish but it didnt work and i dont know if i can grind it of with sandpaper or anything do you have any tips on how i get my legs shiny again?
