Workshop BSS 2024: Hungarian Sabre Do something right with the false edge

In this workshop we will focus on one of the main characteristics of Hungarian fencing, namely cuts with the back edge. In other fencing schools these cuts are unfortunately a little underrepresented but with the right practice they can be used swiftly and precisely. We will mostly be referring to Gustav Arlows Sabre Fencing in High Tierce (1894) although this is applicable to almost all Hungarian sabre schools. In this workshop we will learn to: Cut with the back edge correctly with a moulinet but also with a disengage as well. Tactical application of back edge cuts as a direct attack, riposte, counterattack or remise. By Djordje Mijailovic from Twerchhau (Berlin).
