This leaf is from a 16th century copy of Paulus Kal's German fencing manual of ca. 1470. It was sold by Günther Rare Books in 2018 to an unknown buyer; only this page is currently known to exist, but the original total is unknown, as are the locations of any other leaves from the text.

Kal's treatise consists of a partial redaction of the writings of Johannes Liechtenauer on Kampffechten, Roßfechten, and Bloßfechten, as well as Kal's own teachings on a variety of other weapons. It differs from the works of other followers of Liechtenauer in that instead of offering extensive glosses of the high master's verses, Kal explains them with detailed illustrations.
