<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>The &#039;&#039;&#039;false edge&#039;&#039;&#039; is the back edge of a bladed weapon, typically a [[sword]]. This may also be referred to as the &#039;short edge&#039;.<br /> <br /> This edge of the blade is used when using a [[longsword]] for some strikes as advocated by [[medieval]] [[fencing master]]s in [[fechtbuch|fechtbucher]] (fencing manuals).<br /> <br /> The false edge is not thought to have been used by [[fencing master]]s when using [[arming sword]]s due to the physical weakness of the blow when utilised in a one-handed capacity, with the possible excpetion of unarmoured foes.<br /> <br /> [[category:weapon parts]]</div>
