So, it's actually symbolic of directly stabbing at or slashing the arm... and using the spine edge of the blade wouldn't actually be used to redirect the attack in actual combat?

Sorry, kind of a newby to FMA so still a little confused

This is the kind of parrying away thing I was talking about.

Thanks alot guys, the reason for me asking is because I'm just wondering if there's a better way for me and my own training. Always got to be prepared to question your own stuff to find out if there isn't a better way, right?
