The storvik punch tester that will be attending monday night 
practices (and which you just show up to practice to use), has been 
sort of tested.

It punches nice holes in three layers of the canvas I'm using for my 
tunic (I've got to remember to wear at least one heavy shirt).

However, the 3 layers of table cloth, cotton twill and heavy denim 
for my doublet caused it to bounce nicely.

When not at Stovik practices it will be in my car, so it will attend 
some Roxbury Mill events (most regularly, Scriptorium), and will 
otherwise hang out in Bethesda, Kensington, and Rockville.

The straight thrust and the disengage with the foil,
and the simple cutting attack with the sabre, if
done properly with distance, cannot be parried.
