Short Cut
A secondary cut which shares much in common with the early german technique which break the guard ochs. The cut is a version of the krumphauw which preemptively cuts underneath an oberhauw with a short cut to the head.
Execution
The interpretation of the canonical description of this strike is executed as follows:
- Standing in left forward weighted posture
- As the opponent goes up for a strike overhead passing step forward and cut a krumphauw quite tight and short and cut "forward" in the strike so it lands with a short cutting/slicing action to their head.
- If the opponent cuts down ensure the hands are lifted high so the high guard parries their incoming blow.
In which the 'student' demonstrates their knowledge to the 'teacher'.
| Teacher | Student |
|---|---|
| Vom tag, left leg forward | Pflug, left leg forward |
| Passing Step Oberhauw | Krumphauw without a step short under their blade angled sharply toward the opponent (this looks almost likes a sturtzhauw), lifting the hands high to collect theirs on the way down, and slice/cut their head. |
