Basic Level Single Sword term

Definition

A renewal of attack to the target without retraction of the sword arm.

Origin

French

Translation

from the verb "remettre": to replace, to put (an object) back

In this renewed attack the blade remains in the line in which it was parried (or missed) and is replaced on the target by a finger action; or else it is left in line for the partner to lunge onto. In neither case is there any retraction of the sword-arm.
