-=== Knuckle Strike ===
+This has been spelled incorrectly in several locations, so this will redirect you to the correct instance:
-A secondary strike in Meyer's system.  This blow attacks the wrists and elbows.
+See [[Kniechelhauw]]
-==Execution==
-The canonical application of the Kneichelhauw is described as follows:
-* Stand in [[Vom tag]]
-* As the opponent lifts his hands up to [[Vom tag]] cut a rising [[Zwerch]] to his wrists or elbows.
-We can extend the strike to be generically a strike to the wrists or elbows in this way.
-==Application==
-The kneichelhauw is rarely used as a direct first attack except as a means of drawing a response.  More often it is used from the bind ([[Anbinden]]) wherein the fencer waits for the opponent to take his blade away and at that moment cuts in to the wrists or elbows, or as a chasing movement when the opponent goes up overhead ([[Nachreisen]]).
-In this respect it can be extrapolated as being any cut against the arms used this way.
-==Application Example==
-In which the 'student' demonstrates their knowledge to the 'teacher'.
