You do a perfectly good job describing the myriad reasons of what the differences are, what their potential benefits and draw backs are, the cost and ease of manufacture, the durability, and so on. But separate out the strike and defense technique as another video to keep the point more concise and focused. It is a very nuanced topic that cannot be effectively described in a single video and as such I think it would do well with more episodes focusing on different aspects. One about the mechanical differences, and one about the differences in use.

I liked the version you put up on YouTube more. Way less confusing and more to the point.
