Sword and Shield
In the Sword and Shield category, combatants engage in one-on-one duels wielding a one-handed sword and a shield, requiring a harmonious blend of offensive strikes and defensive tactics. Permitted swords include single-handed swords, sabres, broadswords (up to 1,700 grams), and falchions (up to 1,900 grams).
The shield serves both as a protective barrier and an offensive tool, allowing for powerful shield bashes to unbalance opponents. Specific regulations govern equipment standards, permissible techniques, and scoring criteria to ensure fair competition and safety. For comprehensive details on these rules, refer to the official Buhurt International rule book.
