Outside (bladed weapon)

The outside or third side is the outside of a bladed weapon . Since it is difficult to describe the direction in these, technical terms have been specified to rule out confusion of direction. The term describes the outside side of the weapon, while holding in the hand against the wearer's body and vertically standing guard to the right.
