Browsing youtube I ran into an unauthorized copy of a video of myself and Mr. Michele Cattaneo grinding a sword on an ancient grindstone at the brescian maglio of San Bartolomeo.

This video was never authorized and Historical Armouries appropriated of my work.
This is the original video

Anybody can see what has been done.

What Nathan said, make a copyright claim on the video.

Good idea, but I haven't found a link or button to do it so far.
EDIT
I have found a copyright infringement form.
I'm still appalled at how brazen this author was in appropriating of my video.

Happens all the time. I once found some photos of my sword collection on somebodys website. They didn't respond to any emails asking to remove my photos and I gave up in the end as the website wasn't monetizing any page views.

Thanks for posting this. made me go and look at 'their' other work.
The best thing I can say is repeat the words of an arms and armour curator I heard yesterday.
'There are plenty of people making armour. But there are very few armourers.'
Currently working on projects ranging from Elizabethan pageants to a WW1 Tank, Victorian fairgrounds 1066 events and more. Oh and we joust loads!.. We run over 250 events for English Heritage each year plus many others for Historic Royal Palaces, Historic Scotland, the National Trust and more. If you live in the UK and are interested in working for us just drop us a line with a cv.

It's the internet, it happens. Youtube in particular has been cracking down on it lately, though, so it should get taken down and their account will probably get a strike or be removed.

I am not sure why you are so upset, unless they were selling it, or you are selling it and their actions were costing you sales what is the big deal, you made the video to be watched it seems, what actual harm was being done?

Eric, I sincerely doubt anyone here has the time or inclination to follow you down that particular rabbit hole.
Bruno, I wish you luck and hope you receive satisfaction, please keep us apprised.
Perhaps someone can recommend a good legal site re: Internet / intellectual property rights for Eric??

If it were me I would say the biggest offense was putting that horrid soundtrack over the video. I mean, that is just insulting. ;D

Well, first of all one feels as if his house had been broken in, secondly it is immoral to appropriate of somebody else's work and any behavior like this must be sanctioned for the sake of the entire community of sword enthusiasts.
These guys were claiming to be grinding swords that particular way, which was highly misleading to all prospective customers. This is a not very honest business practice so this lead me to post it here.
You tube has just removed the video.
Thanks everybody for your support.

Please look up "fair use" law.
And contrast that with me spending good hard-earned cash on usage rights for our publishing efforts here on myArmoury.com.
