Self - Defense
It has long been the belief of myself and my peers in the OMSG that historical Western Martial Arts can effectively be applied to modern Self-Defense.  Currently its is our hope that one day we will be able to present WMA as a suitable and effective alternative to Eastern Martial Arts in terms of teaching Self-Defense. 
Our main source of study is the 1409 manuscript Flos Duallatorum written by Fiore dei Liberi.  This work has lengthy sections on grappling (hand to hand combat) and dagger fighting.  Through our research and training we have found that many of the techniques described in this manuscript can be applied in a modern Self-Defense scenario.
