Hello , i would like to ask you, what is the source for those hungarian sabre techniques? ..Is it some sort of military manual/drill book ?(if so what is the name of the author/year of origin) , and also is this method native to hungary or borrowed from western european sources?..thank you very much

p.s: i apologize if this question was already raised

Unfortunately there is no manual. But technics are directly from Austrian drill-master from beginning of 20-th century.

Thanks for the demonstration video-It's nice to see the motion slowed down a bit. Now I can actually practice the movements. Thanks!

@Kostagh The sabre has a false edge on the back of the blade for reverse cuts. There are drills for this kind of curved blade to be used on foot.

No, my friend, the sabre was widespread among infantrymen too!

[nandus1989]

Yeah, and the traditional fencing in the 17th century and before needed to cut throught the enemy's armour sometimes. We're learning to include our upper arm's and shoulder's power to the blob too. The're also wrist-techs, but they intend only to do light damage with rhe blind-edge.

Hi,

I do polish sabre in Sydney Australia;

what is the name of the Hungarian fencing school?

Hi, nice video

I have to say, even if it's rude to criticise some else's work, that you must synchronize your footworks with the top of your body. In real combat blows, you would risk hard leg cuts from your own blade. No bad moves, just "sync'" if you see what I mean (anyway from a horse the question disappears) :)

Hungarian, wit Ukrainian cossack's elements :)
