How To Sword Fight: Double Arm Wrap and Disarm

This is a video that we will look at a double arm wrap against a Fendente. In this action we are ’finding’ the blade, rotating the edge of our blade, combining footwork to close distance with the opponent, grappling and locking both of the opponent’s arms at the elbow, and disarming them of their sword. This play is found in Fior di Battaglia, Ms. Ludwig XV 13 (), fol. 30. You can see the full manuscript at Visit DEMAS online Website Support us on Patreon Facebook Instagram Youtube
