Thank you for sharing these. Wonderful! Your videos have moved me to look into Meyer and his use of the dussack after watching these. Thanks again.

Thank you for putting all the time and effort into these. these are top notch HEMA videos.

Awesome, as usual. Meyer's zornhut techniques are so fascinating, I love seeing how they transition and flow. The music is so chill this time! 😄

Thanks so much for these videos, they are insanely well done. I'd be very interested in a video that took a closer look at how Meyer parries with the dussack. What postures to use when parrying what cuts, how to use footwork in conjunction with parries to set up other moves, etc.

@partymoses 4 года назад

I don't believe that Meyer's system is set up like this, really. Parrying is done either as a cut, or as a turn of the long edge toward an incoming cut, and most parries can be done from any posture. In very general terms, if their cut is above your weapon, you want to intercept it as early in its trajectory as possible, and if you're above their cut, you want to stay above it and force it down, doing whatever handworks are appropriate and following up with whatever action is simplest, safest, or most effective in that situation. There are far too many possibilities to concisely explain in a single short video. That's what the Stucke are for! But we will be covering some simple advice on parrying from Gerade Versatsung in the next video, and there's similar good advice in the Bogen section as well.

Today we will be looking at the posture of "come at me b##@#"

Also, I'm currently reading through the dussack section and am struggling with 2.30V, the first false edge low cut following the parry, even after watching you demonstrate it I can't seem to wrap my head around it. Did you have any advice?

@partymoses 4 года назад

it's a tricky grip transition, for sure. What I've opted for is to shift my grip so that my verschieben parry actually catches their cut more on my crooked edge than the long edge, even though the description of verschieben says to use the long edge. From there, it's basically a quick, shortened zwerch. You might also have luck in making that first crooked edge cut a looping cut, instead of a quick one - catch their cut and then bring your dusack all the way around your head to cut against their right.

@StairwayToAsgard 4 года назад

Why does it say windthau if you're just cutting away?

@partymoses 4 года назад

I might do a quick video in a bit to explain this. For one thing, it's (I think) a reasonable interpretation of the winding cut, as it not only follows the description of that cut from other weapons, and I think a quick reorientation of the blade at the halfway point is pretty natural. But one of the biggest reasons is that, filmed in profile like this, a winding cut just looks like an Oberhauw, and if I filmed it like that people would be asking "why are you just doing an oberhauw instead of a winding cut?" haha

@MCmoglei 4 года назад

I really like your series, especially your form. It's a quite good fit to the intention of the source. But here, your interpretation is not following the source din regard to the windthauw . He describes the windthauw as a cut that comes in form one direction and goes out on the same, just like cutting a quarter piece out of your opponent in one swift motion. So it shouldn't be two separate cuts or tempi like you are doing it. It's like the windthauw in the long sword, but in dussack, you are not necessarily trying to get in a bind and then do your winding. But there, it is the same. Cutting from your left against his cut and then cutting over his arm in one motion back to your left. The same principle, but without a bind. So you will come out on the upper opening if you start cutting from below and so on. Anyway, keep up the good work. Reagrds Moglei

@partymoses 4 года назад

Sure. You're not wrong, but ultimately I think its a matter of interpretation, and that I tend to do winding cuts as shown more often than not. I talk briefly about it in video 3 or 4 when I talk about secondary cuts. Without going on and on about it, I believe there are quite a few places in which Meyer talks about making compound actions in one continuous action that arent dissimilar to the winding cut shown here. Thanks for the comment!

@ethanmurchie3848 4 года назад

Can I ask where did you get the training weapons you are using?

@thomastucker7317 4 года назад

Ahhh I see, are you going through all of the content in the order it is presented in the book?

@partymoses 4 года назад

not all of it. I'm going through mostly as a way to showcase the precepts that Meyer describes in dusack. Upcoming, we'll show some techniques from gerade versatsung, bogen, and then some general advice about grappling and einlauffen. If there are requests for more specific stuff I might keep going, but I've got some other projects in the works I'm eager to get to when i finish with this.
