19,783“...the High Cut (if you guide it against the opponent’s [sword] at the Strong toward their right hand) counters all other cuts which are cut at you, whether from below, slantwise, or across.”
"... [The High Cut] would be driven off by the Wrath or Crossing Cut, and the Low Cut also takes out the High Cut by lifting the High Cut upward (if it is executed with strength and if it is supported by stepping out)."
Joachim Meyer, 16 C. Fencing Master
