The "Double-Edged" Sword - Is it Dangerous to the User?
This is a response to a viewer question about whether there is a risk of cutting yourself with a double-edged blade like a longsword in historical martial arts. Particularly with regards to the Zwerchhau (thwart cut), which on camera can make it look like the blade is getting dangerously close to the head.
