Bicorno (Fol 24v)
System: Fiore: Longsword
Section: Fiore: Longsword: Guards
Source Text and Drawing
This is the two-horned guard that stands so closed that it always stands with the point in the middle of the way. And that which long guard can do, this can do. And I say the same of window guard and crown guard. Two-horned guard, unstable.
