Make all the fun you want to make but tell me is there any place in Lahore or London that teaches Sword fighting?
I’ve always wanted to learn it just for the sake of it. Although, ill probably never get to use but it’d be awesome to learn something like that.

Re: Sword fighting!!
Are you awesome, or what!! 
Re: Sword fighting!!
Fencing is brilliant for all round fitness as well.
Although you might also want to look up Kendo which is the Japanese art of sword fighting.
Theres a whole world to the art of swordplay and depending on which style or body shape you are there are styles and weapons to support.
My personal favourite weapon would be the Saber and the famed Butterfly knives.
Re: Sword fighting!!
You can learn it by watching some youtube videos.
here is one example.
Disclaimer: Do not do it at home. Sword fighting is dangerous and you can lose limb or life.

Okay fencing is for women. You want sword fighting you want some shaolin stuff.

Aaah CM yaar kya yaad dilaye aap nai :P
I personanaly am inclined to agree with you on some part definately the broadswords are very nice.
I never really mastered the finer art of straight blades, even though Wisdom dictates the point shall beat the edge, straight clanger type swords are not exactly easy to wield without years of training as well as muscle as those blades can be very heavy indeed.
Whereas most cutting swords are pretty easy to master and tend to be lighter.
I do love the Chinese Jian as well which are remarkable spring steel blades with a straight double edge. The Katana obviously is also a Japanese sword which is a nice cutter but has a very fine point too.
As for Asiatic styles one cannot pass up a Kilij if your after a butal edge in good hands a sword like that can beat several points right back.
One thing I hate about fencing is the way it limits you to fight with only one hand. I am pretty ambidextrous and just love fighting with multiple weapons or a combination of weapons.
