The fighter on the far left breaks his adversary’s arm over his left shoulder, as described above. The fighter on the far right makes a shield against stabs from above and below by gripping his dagger with both hands.

The fighter on the far left makes a shield with his dagger to ward his opponent’s cut from above. His opponent counters by twisting his dagger around between his adversary’s arms. He now has leverage to throw or disarm his adversary as we can see in the pair on the right.

The fighter on the far left traps his opponent with the scissors-hold. The fighter second from the right has his opponent in a scissors-hold around the neck. The fighter on the far right will counter by throwing his adversary.
