The Hilt & Cross
School of Historical European Martial Arts

Authentically Recreated Martial Arts

At the Hilt and Cross we interpret, experiment, practice and teach martial arts from the late Middle Ages, Renaissance, and Early Modern Periods. Every mode of practice we use comes from historical source material, recreated as faithfully as possible from original sources written by masters of swords, staffs, and other weapons from the eras when these weapons were the pinnacle of military technology of their time.
