  1. I just came across your video of Uriah Jones. Thank you! I was around 12 or 13 years old and took my first fencing lesson from Uriah at his Salle du Lion in New Haven CT. I was so amoured with fencing and couldn't get enough, my grades fell. My mother threaten to stop paying for lesson until my grades returned. He was such a powerful gentle giant of a man. I forgot about his double blade technique until I watched your vintage video. Uriah would always end my lesson with a lunge when he dropped his blade but I had to hit him before he can parry my blade. Thank you again for bringing back my youthfull memories of such a wonderful time.
