Kunst des Fechtens (Longsword Fighting)

German for the Art of Fencing, this line of teaching covers the use of a longsword and two-handed blades. Kunst des Fechtens is about slashing strokes rather than thrusts. Like the Wudang Sword, Kunst des Fechtens swordplay revolves around five major movements and twelve minor movements, all focused on timing and stance. This style is more aggressive, using leverage and brute strength to take down an opponent.
