25.01.2022 What’s better than one ASSSS? Three of them!!!! Well done to our fencers Jonathon Paratz and Fuller November’s Carranza cup. Fuller took out first place . Special mention to our glorious leader Christopher Godwin for being an awesome boss man fighter. Thanks BSIS for hosting us, a professional and well run event as always.

23.01.2022 The School is using the hall for an awards night or some such thing tonight. Sadly that means we can't be smacking each other up with swords at the same time. Catch you all next week where we'll be having Craig Gemeiner in to run a La Canne workshop.

23.01.2022 The ASSSS fencers did it again! Well done to Daniel Arnold and Emma Fowler who took the gold in the open longsword and womans division Also congratulations to Chanara Gettons who came third in the womans division as well. Awesome work to all of our fencers who fenced, Marshalled and scored. ... Good luck to everyone in the Sword and buckler and rapier tomorrow.

23.01.2022 Due to unforeseen circumstances training has been cancelled tonight. Training will resume as per normal next Friday.

23.01.2022 I would like to present the award for the most technical fighter to.....Daniel Arnold. Well done ASSSS!!!

21.01.2022 Our favourite sword smith did a thing!

20.01.2022 Last Sunday the Brisbane School of Iberian Swordsmanship once again hosted the Carranza Cup for 2018. This is a wonderful medium intensity event which allows fencers to test themselves in a more forgiving environment. Congratulations to Phil Hip from ASSSS for taking the top spot on the day! ASSSS also provided 3 of the "BOSS" fencers for the event, and the other ASSSS fencers (Ben, Jessica, Meaghan and Chanara) also fought with great tenacity, courage, skill and a little bit of trolling as well :P Thank Lois & Laura for the photos!

19.01.2022 Just some ASSSS on a Friday night #getgud

19.01.2022 Sadly we are CANCELING TONIGHT over health concerns in regards to the current outbreak of the Plague in queensland. Hopefully it is just a precaution & over the next week we'll just be shown to be over reacting. Either way better safe than dead or ending up with the lungs of a WW1 gas bombardment survivor.

18.01.2022 There are two more training nights for this year, 3rd (Monday) and the 7th (Friday). After that we will be on Christmas break. See you in the next two sessions!

17.01.2022 Reminder there is no training tonight!! The BadASSSSery will continue next Friday! Good luck to Christopher Godwin, Daniel Arnold, Chanara Gettons and Jonathon Paratz who are travelling to Sydney for the Big Tree tournament. ... Kick ASSSS See more

17.01.2022 Everybody's rushing to ASSSS tonight! Don't miss out on some sword smacking fun times! 7:15 onwards, first timers get in free. ;)

17.01.2022 We may be on break for the year but the learning never stops. Here's a good article that is written for our Modern Fencing cousins but applies to all Fencers. https://academyoffencingmasters.com//five-simple-ways-to/

16.01.2022 Don't freak out! Special bra optional ASSSS session on tonight at 7:15. Parking on Samuel street again as the carpark Is still being fiddled with.

15.01.2022 Another tournament, and another victory for ASSSS, with Chrisopher Godwin taking out the Gold in Sabre at the Prima Spada Sabre tournament!, with senior fencers Emma and Dan coming in at 4th and 5th respectively. Thanks to all those who gave us some great matches and thanks to the Prima Spada School of Fence for running another great event!

15.01.2022 Fantastic work to the ASSSSets at the Prima Spada Sabre Tournament! Congratulations to our ASSSSette Emma Fowler for placing second All of our fencers represented our club with fantastic sportsmanship and skill, well done to all

14.01.2022 The ASSSSets are doing a thing!! A thing raising awareness and funds for cancer research while fencing! Good luck to our fencers as they fence though the night.

13.01.2022 Like the rest of Australia we've got to shut down. Do as you're told, stay inside and keep distanced. Don't spread the plague. But if it does turn out to be zombies, well we're ready.

13.01.2022 Lots of ASSSS tonight #asssshema

11.01.2022 This one's done the rounds a few times, but if you look closely at her sabre you'll notice it has a radelli ring around the guard, giving a hint at the fencing lineage.

11.01.2022 Our fencers have finished pillaging the south and have arrived home safely! Thank you to Toby Lunn and the Big Tree club for hosting us and for the fantastic tournament. All of our fencers had great fights that were run smoothly and efficiently. Big thank you to Lev and others from Big Tree for your exceptional marshalling through the whole event. ... Cant wait for next years tournament

11.01.2022 Daniel Arnold chopped down the big tree at the Big Tree Super Series Cheers Toby Lunn for the awesome longsword tournament. Next up is the sabre

10.01.2022 Just a reminder no class is on tonight or next Friday as the bulk of our members are in WA kicking ASSSS! Go team!

10.01.2022 No club on tonight, catch y'all on the flip side .

09.01.2022 Training is back this Friday night.

09.01.2022 ASSSS will be closed this Friday due to Sword Fight V on the Gold Coast. Good luck to the ASSSSets competing! Bring home the gold!!

09.01.2022 Custom Cotton Varsity Jerseys! Ready to be sent out to one of our regular customers #customkings#varsityjackets#custommade#mantissportswear#supplyingthemasses#getyoursnow @mantis_sportswear @the_mantis_official

09.01.2022 No ASSSS tonight all! Take the time to find various other fun things to do ;)

08.01.2022 Unfortunately our glorious leader has fallen ill. There will be no training this evening. Training will resume next week.

08.01.2022 Enjoy your holidays everyone, ASSSS will begin anew on the 17th of January. See you all than!

07.01.2022 Fresh off the work bench - a unique complex hilted rapier based on 17th century Spanish examples complete with scabbard and suspension system. Christopher organ...ised this commission to be as historically accurate as possible to allow him to further explore and understand the work of Gerard Thibaul. The main thing that sets this one apart is the blade characteristics, the 10mm thick base tapering down to 3mm at the tip combined with the aggressive profile taper creates a whole different feeling in the hand. While it makes the forging process more intensive and the overall weight slightly heavier than usual the results are worth it in my opinion. Here are the stats. Overall length - 1225mm Blade length - 1110mm (44 inch) Weight - 1170 grams Pob - 103mm Thickness - 10mm - 3mm Width - 16.7mm - 4.5mm Blade - 5160 spring steel Guard and pommel - 304SS and 421SS Scabbard - wood core, felt lining and leather Thanks for looking

05.01.2022 No ASSSS tonight all, we'll be back on next week ;)

Sorry all going to have to cancel tonight as the holder of the hall keys has absconded to the coast with them (I did double check they where available this morning).

04.01.2022 Running at 7:15 as usual tonight. Park on Samuel st tonight as they are renovating the car park.

04.01.2022 Another tree falls!! Dan Arnold took gold in the sabre for the Big Tree Super Series!! Super proud of all our fencers who participated! Training resumes this Friday

03.01.2022 Our glorious leader and some of our fencers are heading down to Sydney for the Big Tree tournament. There will be no training this coming Friday (8th Nov). Wish our badASSSSes luck!

02.01.2022 This weekend the Queensland Knife show is on. Brad White one of the worlds best bladesmiths is going to have a stall there. Brad happens to be a local Queensland man & trains in HEMA as well as making the highest quality training swords for our hobby. If you have the time definitely get to the knife show this weekend & show him some support.

02.01.2022 Sorry all going to have to cancel tonight as the holder of the hall keys has absconded to the coast with them (I did double check they where available this morning). Class will be on this Friday & than every Monday & Friday.
