Deutliche und grůndliche Erklårung der Adelichen und Ritterlichen freyen Fecht-Kunst ("A Clear and Thorough Explanation of the Noble, Chivalric, and Free Art of Fencing") is a German fencing manual written by Johann Daniel Lange (as Jéann Daniel L'Ange) and initially printed in 1664. It treats the use of the single rapier and seems to fall into the tradition of Salvator Fabris.
