right from many clips/pages/pictures/stuff etc I have gone through, I still have a real foggy veiw of the Schielhau. From what I gather its an Oberhau with the long edge that twists up into the short edge before blade contact and drops down on the other side of the targets sword thus hitting their sholder?. I haven't found anything on the net that really clarifies this, in the way of pictures or clips, Christain Toblers book 'fighting with the German longsword' has a pic of him in right Vom Tag and then in a vertical blade left Ochs (if you get my meaning) and I just cant really figure a comfortable way to get from a to b! so yea any help or info or clips that may help me out? cheers
