    I think swords work by putting the pointy bit in the other person and trying to keep the other person's pointy bit out of oneself.

      Well no, the point of this video is actually Bronze Age swords like the one shown are actually about using the pointy side, not the pointy bit, in a cutting/chopping motion rather than a thrusting into another person type motion.
