The River Undercuts the Bank is a sword form.

Description[]

The River Undercuts the Bank is a movement involving dropping to one knee in order to make a horizontal cut at the enemy's abdomen or legs. It is a dangerous tactic without the proper setup.

In practice[]

While Turak Aladon was still retreating from The Boar Rushes Down the Mountain, Rand al'Thor used The River Undercuts the Bank to kill the Seanchan High Lord.[1] During the duel between Rand al'Thor and Be'lal, the Forsaken used this form and almost beheaded the Dragon Reborn.[2]
