Armored combat or buhurt (from Old French béhourd: "joust", "tournament") or medieval combat or historical medieval battles (HMB), among other names, is a modern full contact fighting sport with steel blunt weapons characteristic of the Middle Ages. Fighters are covered in full modern-produced protective armour, made from steel or titanium alloy, made to aesthetically be close to their historical counterparts with modern protection techniques.
