Hansel grinned. The stance he held up until now was a heavy defensive stance. It held the blade at an equilibrium and made quickly defending from every angle possible. He swatted the two swords behind him and kicked away the incoming knives. His boots where thick, so throwing daggers via the normal method wouldn't work. 

As soon as he closed in on the ground he stabbed his blade down and used it as a pole vault, extending the range of his foot and bringing down the back of his boots towards Janos head as he sidestepped.
