Fully suited knights were actually so stupidly hard to kill that what would happen is they would just be swarmed and captured alive

Wait a minute, you're going to tell me armor... Protects you?
Hollywood bout ready to shut this man down.

I swear he needs to be on History channel with his own show. With his aragorn look and accent he will be perfect for it

Your armor won’t break and you won’t die, but boy I bet your ears would start ringing a bit with how loud that sounded lmao

people who have never even touched a medieval weapon are disagreeing

To add on here cause I like the science behind the mace: The physics behind a mace means that even with a small mace head, all of the weight at the end of the weapon results in an immense amount of force from a human’s swing. This is why war hammers in real life are much smaller than fantasy would have you believe, the speed of the swing is much more important. While armor (padding included) can definitely absorb a good portion of the impact, that swing could bring someone down depending on where you hit. Hitting someone square in the breastplate is unlikely to break something, though it will definitely hurt. Hitting someone in a joint is probably the most devastating place to hit, such as the back of the knee. That would most likely result in a broken bone or torn ligaments.

It's funny how many comments in here just can't tolerate the idea of a man who actually gets hit for real, full-on, with these things telling them that his experiences are such, and do not match many popular conceptions.
Makes me wonder. If getting smashed in the head with a mace with real intent to hit hard (and not suffering notable damage due to a helmet) is not enough to convince someone that armor actually is effective and won't just crumple under a heavy whack, then what even is?

The "breaking bones" part is a big myth about armoured combat. I believed it too, just like that when the armoured knight fell down, he couldn't stand up. But I don't blame myself for ignorance, because I read it in an old history book.

I don't know about that conclusion... wouldn't want my knee to be on the opposite side of those strikes ☠️😳

If I’m not mistaken most fights against armored units were more focused on exhausting or immobilizing the armored infantry so they could capture them and ransom those more valuable units. Lose of life= money to be made. That is also select conflicts that have happened

One of the (in my personal opinion) best looking weapons ever.

This is accurate!
Your armor only break if it is defective.

I think Matt Easton mentioned in a video recently that during the late 14th and 15th century there’s very few depictions of single handed maces being used by infantry (save for batons of command etc) and that they seem to be mostly reserved for use by people on horse back who can rely on the horse’s momentum, which I think is probably the reason the ottomans start using war hammers around the 15th century, where like with European war hammers they have a spike to attack gaps with

Maces are like expectations,
It’s all about what’s on the inside that counts.

A mace, like an armor breaker, was not really meant to penetrate the armor plate. It's primary purpose was to dent and bang away at the joints in the armor, like the shoulder, elbows and in a pinch if the wielder was down, at the knees. It was especially effective if the wielder could get a good strike on the knight's hand armor because it's weaker. It could render the knights hand unable to use a sword. The other reason is to make the knight immobile. If an armored knight could be knocked down with all of that armor, the process of getting up (if he could even do so) made him very vulnerable to someone who could slip a dagger, dirk, or slimmer sword between the plates.

I would like to see a test with ballistic gel dummies, Im curious about how much blunt force goes throught armor.
Anyways maces might struggle against hardened steel, but not everyone weared them on the medieval battlefields.

I love maces. It's good to see you field test one against armor. I thought they would do more damage. Thank you for the demo.

i love how the subtitles interpret the mace hitting steel as applause

in my grandpa's garden we have an old Hammer, it is as big as a Sledgehammer but it's shaped like a Raven's beak mace. his father found it there in the 1860's buried next to a old treestump. it has no rust on it and even the wooden shaft is in almost flawless condition, high quality work was made back in the days
