Meisterhauw
Master Cuts/Strikes
For our purposes these are the more advanced and on-point variants of the techniques, using better body mechanics and faster motions than we would expect from junior students.
Contents |
Zornhauw
The zornhauw defeates all cuts from above. As we progress our zornhauw becomes more point focused, launching forward with the point.
Krumphauw
Our krump springs out and away, striking directly to the hands instead of taking the blade, or cuts short under a person's blade, shooting in with the point to break the ochs guard.
Schielhauw
Launches forward with the point. This defeats the pflug/longpoint (as well as incoming cuts)
Zwerch
The movement becomes less of large movement and tightens into smaller motions executed swiftly.
Scheitelhauw
The movement casts out very long and fast, and comes on point, turning into an on-point plunge to discourage people in low guards and to force a parry.
