Crown Strike This you hold thus: when you stand in the Plough or in a similar stance (which are discussed in an earlier chapter) which allow stabs from below, and your opponent strikes at you from above, then drive above you with a high traversing cross, intercept his strike above on your riccasso or quillons, and as soon as he slides, bring your pommel up high and strike with the half edge behind his blade onto his head, thus you have rightly executed the Crown Strike. |
[Ⅰ.14r.4] Kronhauw. DIser helt sich also, wann du im Pflug stehest, oder sonsten durch ein Leger (von welchem im vorgehenden Capitel gesagt ist) von Unden auff zufechtest, unnd dein widerpart von Oben auff dich Hauwet, so fahre mit uberzwerchem kreutz ubersich, fang ihme seinen streich in der lufft auff dein schilt oder kreutzstang, und als bald es glitschet, stoß den Knopff behendt ubersich, und schlag ihn mit der halben schneiden hinder seiner klingen auff den Kopff, so hastu den Kronhauw recht volbracht. |
