Justin Ma & Blake Cole's arrow penetration test on Chinese lamellar armour replica

Armour piercing!
I don't normally share other people's work here, but this is simply too good to pass up. Justin Ma and Blake Cole from The Way of Archery, in collaboration with Cathay Armoury, just released a arrow penetration test on Chinese armour as the first episode of their Warfare Research Series.

As far as I am aware, this is the first test on Asiatic lamellar armour conducted with authentic reproductions, scientific measuring equipment, sufficiently powerful bow and heavy arrows, and I must say both the bow and the armour performed remarkably well!

Well, I should refrain from spoiling too much and let the video do the talking. Go watch it. For that matter, please support their YouTube Channel and Patreon too!

Random Quotes & Trivia

Ming court actually planned to launch a punitive expedition against Japan during the second half of Imjin War. However, a rebellion that broke out in Guangxi caused delays to the plan. By the time the rebellion was put down and Ming court was ready to relaunch the expedition, Toyotomi Hideyoshi died and Imjin War had come to an end, so the plan was cancelled.
