| − | A secondary strike in Meyer's system. This blow attacks the wrists and elbows.

| − | The knuckle strike application below is also a demonstration of the chasing after ([[Nachreissen]]) handwork.

| − | ==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.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==Notes==
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | 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==
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | In which the 'student' demonstrates their knowledge to the 'teacher'.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===Application 1: Kniechelhauw Entry===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | In this application the cut is being used as a [[Provoker, Hitter, & Taker|Hitter]] in the [[Stages of the Exchange|Onset]]. In this case the fencer is acting in the [[Vor, Nach, Indes, & Gleich|Vor]] at the beginning of the technique. The technique also demonstrates [[Nachreisen]] as it follows up after a guard change.
