Andres Juden (Andres "the Jew"), the priest Hans Döbringer, Jobs von der Nissen, and Nicklass Preußen are four 14th century German fencing masters in the tradition of Johannes Liechtenauer. None of these men is mentioned by Paulus Kal as being a member of the Society of Liechtenauer with the possible exception of Andres the Jew (which might be a reference to Andre Liegniczer).

Attributed to these four masters is an addendum to Liechtenauer's Record which primarily discusses fencing from the guard Eisen Pforte ("the iron gate"), a variant on Alber. Sigmund Schining ein Ringeck also treated fencing from this guard in his addendum to Liechtenauer's teachings, but there is little overlap between the two treatises.
