I’m 24, I practice fencing. My height is 198 cm, I usually fence against shorter opponents. They often manage to drive their smallsword into my belly. That’s why I’m curious: what would it be like to get wounded into the belly by a real smallsword? How lethal would it be? How painful? How would I react?

    You would probably say “ow, my belly”

    Not sure about the lethality or pain level, tho.

        Sorry, my reply was dumb. I don’t know what you said back, but it was probably completely justified. 😄

          Its totally ok! I just answered that I would also clutch my belly with my hands and fall on my knees, but then deleted it because thought it was kind of dumb 😅
