Das Ander Theil Des Newen Kůnstreichen Fechtbůches ("The Second Part of This New Art-Rich Fencing Manual", Codex Guelf 83.4 August 8º) is a German fencing manual created in 1591.[1] The original currently rests in the holdings of the Herzog-August Bibliothek in Wolfenbüttel, Germany. The title implies that a previous volume was created, but its location is currently unknown. This manuscript is unusual both because of its unique art style, portraying overweight fencers drawing huge amounts of blood despite using training weapons, and because it treats all of the typical Freifechter weapons but shows no connection to the tradition of Johannes Liechtenauer. Unfortunately, it seems based on the presence of blank frames at the end of each section that the manuscript was never completed.
