Ringeck
From p146-147 of Sigmund Ringeck's Knightly Art of the Longsword, translation/adaptaion by David Lindholm and Peter Svard.
From the bind move in and, as you step, push his sword to your right with the crossguard, making sure that you keep your point up; do not let it drop. Move your left hand over his right arm, palm down up between his hands and move it to your right arm.
Grab your right arm with your left hand. The swords will be places on your opponent's neck or (left) upper arm.
Grip with force and hold him tightly. As you move your hand over his arm, press down on his right elbow to weaken him. Use the weight of your body by sinking slightly at the knees.
Move our left hand up and place it on top[ of your right forearm. You will now be able to press his right hand between the grip and your left forearm. He will not be able to move.
Make sure that your left foot is not too close to his right or you will not be able to step in with your right foot.
Step with your right foot behind his right, place it firmly, and tirn to your left at your wasist at the same time. Do this with force.
Practice this technique with care because one can take a very hard fall.
Confused? Intrigued? Who wants to practice this with me? :)
Interesting binding technique that turns into an arm lock, that turns into a hip throw. The bind is the only part SCA-fighting legal, without alteration. The second part can be altered to lock your arm around onto their weapon instead of onto your arm, but this would take some practice and require a bit of contact. The hip throw is right out, obviously, but what can be done is immobilizing by forcing them back and off balance with their own weapon. It would also take some fiddling and teamwork to get.
