Mounted fencing technique 14, Hengen over Twerhau, Von danzig (Lichtenauer)43v
This technique, though from the Lichtenauer parts of the Von danzig manuscript, is seen in many places in many different versions, including Fiore. The particular interest is the use of the Hengen over the sword binding outside the guard of the defender, displacing with the Twerhau.
The Twerhau suddenly crops up, as it is not specifically described for horseback and is used in similar places as Taschenhau, here the author clearly assumes a continuity of the techniques on foot to what is done on horseback.
