[edit] Crown Strike

A secondary strike in Meyer's system. This blow parries with the Kron guard and attacks to the high openings.

[edit] Execution

The canonical application of the Kronhauw is described as follows:

  • Stand in Pflug
  • When the opponent attacks from above, go up to Kron to catch their blade on the crossguard.
  • Lift the pommel high and cut down with the false edge either straight down or on an angle to his head almost like a Sturtzhauw or descending zwerch, keeping his blade on your crossguard or schilt.

[edit] Application

In which the 'student' demonstrates their knowledge to the 'teacher'.

In this application the cut is simultaneously a Taker and Hitter in the Onset.
