Meeting our Taiwan friend

Taiwan RSW player and organizer Exiel came over to Hong Kong for a visit. He hadn't slept at the night before due to flight schedule, and wandered around the street for like 9 hours before the meeting because of the hotel failed to provide room. Tired and sleepy, he arrived to do some test cut and sparred with me. It was his first test cut ever, using miao dao to cut a 4.75" roll newspapers successfully! He was shocked by his success as well!

Then he wielded his self-made sparring weapon (2 handed chinese jian) that was metal cored. It hit very hard and every hit left a bruise. I should have worn my armor too.

Full point was awarded for clear hit and half point was awarded for scratching hit in double-kill.
