Waker Strike
Dussack
A high cut which winds high into a thrust to the face.
Execution
From the text we can execute the waker cut thus:
- Cut a zornhauw from the right.
- The opponent parries high with a hanging
- immediately wind the hilt high to the right and thrust over the hanging from above.
- If he lifts up higher with the blade to push this aside go over the top of his blade to mutieren to the inside line with the thrust.
