Note that the cut sequence oberhauw/zwerch/mittelhauw/unterhauw is carried through all of the parrying sets, however variations on each of the parries can be performed against other cuts (the "response to an oberhauw" for example, can equally be used against a zornhauw or other attack). These movements aren't intended to be used "as is" in free-play, but rather teach body movement and important sword handling principles.

In which the 'student' demonstrates their knowledge to the 'teacher' of various parries inspired by the devices against attacks at various openings.

Note that the cut sequence oberhauw/zwerch/mittelhauw/unterhauw is carried through all of the parrying sets, however variations on each of the parries can be performed against other cuts (the "response to an oberhauw" for example, can equally be used against a zornhauw or other attack). These movements aren't intended to be used "as is" in free-play, but rather teach body movement and important sword handling principles.
