SEVENTH LESSON
PASES DE MANO Y DE SOMBRERO
Because we have already seen that the agility and quickness of the eye is that which contributes most to the good handling of the navaja, we will explain the method which the tiradores value for obliging the adversary to flinch or close his eyes. After the diestro has feinted or struck some golpes, and wants to distract the vision of the adversary for the purpose attacking; at the same moment that you intend to, pass the unarmed hand in front of the eyes or towards them, or take the hat which is worn on the head and pass it one or more times in the same manner, at this instant launch your attack upon him towards the parte baja to wound him in the belly.
