A technique of historical longsword fencing, described in a fechtbuch from the late 16th century by fencing master Joachim Meyer.
It is a so-called reverse slash, where the opponent is hit by the flat of the blade. It is a nach-pace chop, where we react to the opponent's chop from above the head, which we deflect and at the same time hit with the flat of our own blade, which we further escalate with a second strike with the flat of the blade.
