The former had an excellent demonstration of jo vs. katana and some archery (including horsed) and also some unusual weapons (like the kusarigama); the latter had a lot about the club as well as other Germanic weapons (sling, shield, short sword) of the 1st century BC to the 1st century AD. Of course there's the usual hyperbole, but no fake battle challenges. Good stuff!
