The question I would have about 'sword skill' is practical or regimented?

As far as I've seen, except for Gazef and Climb (I don't really consider a kick to be 'dirty'... it's not like a full out fight is a duel or contest. Kicking at the stomach I would call comparatively nice... if I was intending to fight dirty I'd be stomping downwards on the knee, foot, or shin.), most if not all of the supposed melee fighters have been a bit too clean in the way they fight. (The Assasins sent after Sebas were described as fighting dirty, but didn't really fight that way at all imo.) Kicks were seen as Adventurer tricks... but honestly, a telegraphed kick shouldn't be needed in a full out melee if you know how to move to advantage. A simple normal body-check while wearing any kind of armor is more than enough to throw someone or something off balance and would have been a normal part of training. (Conservative estimate: 160 lb fighter... somewhat on the small side, Climb probably is about this size if he's a smallish 15-16  yo by modern western standards. His armor and kit likely weighs 60-70 lbs. 220-230 lbs body-checking you with a flared metal protrusion off the armor would friggin hurt.)
