Buhurt is full-contact historical weapon & armor fighting. Dage grabbed a sword and started doing it a year ago. He has even battled professionally in a ring at events. Most of his fights are 1vs1.... but it was the absolute chaos of a 5vs5 match that caused an accident tearing his knee (ACL).
An ACL tear can be a pretty serious knee injury. Dage had surgery and they replaced some of it with metal. (The ACL is the part that connects your thigh bone to your shinbone and stabalizes the knee joint.)
Over the past 6 months Dage went to physical therapy. He was able to walk again. Then he re-joined us at the gym and eventually started doing leg days with us, then running. Watching his recovery was jaw dropping. He pushed himself... and the results speak for themselves. So when the Physical therapy place said he was ready for his final exam... and his new Black Armor showed up on the same week.......
Safe to walk home at Knight....

Push it to the limits....

As of this post, Dage is ready to get back in the ring again.
He is crazy. It is not like anyone could talk any sense into him.
Sometimes I wonder, what does he say when he meets new people and is asked what he does for a living and for fun? Does he say, "Oh, I draw video game art in the day and put on armor and fight people with sword on the weekend." What a life O_O.
