Mace or sword | the better weapon against armor (A video response to @scholagladiatoria )

If you want to support my videos, then leave a subscription on my Patreon: Many people claim under my videos that maces, warhammers and axes are more effective than swords against armor. In the video of Matt Easton argues that maces are easier to use than swords only when it comes to armored combat. I disagree to that statement and i wanna share with you some points about maces and swords in armored knight fights.
