He is the head instructor at the Victoria (BC, Canada) branch of the Blood & Iron historical martial arts school, and you can see why. 37 wins, 11 losses, 2 draws. Nicely done. :)
The fighting was recorded with a GoPro Hero 3+, attached to the fencing mask.
You can find the singlesticks (for practicing baskethilt sword or saber techniques) and dussacks used in this video at Purpleheart Armoury.
