Fechtregeln ("Fencing Rules"; MS Bestellen 7020 (W*)150) is an anonymous German fencing manual created around the turn of the 16th century.[1] It resided in the holdings of the Historisches Archiv der Stadt Köln in Cologne, Germany, but was unfortunately housed in the wing of the Archive that collapsed in 3 March 2009;[citation needed] its current status is unknown, and it may be lost or destroyed. Fechtregeln, also sometimes called the "Kölner Fechtbuch" (Fencing Manual of Cologne), contains a few verses resembling Johannes Liechtenauer's Record, but it has few other obvious parallels to the teachings of the high master.[1] However, as James Wallhausen points out, it does bear a certain resemblance to the syllabus of the Marxbrüder fencing guild as described by Hans Sachs.[2]

Provenance

The known provenance of the MS Bestellen 7020 (W*)150 is:

  • Created in ca. 1500[1] by an anonymous scribe; the dialect of German used in the text (Ripuarian) suggests an origin in Cologne, Germany.[3]
  • before 1824 – acquired by scholar and collector Ferdinand Franz Wallraf (donated upon his death, 1824).
  • 1824-2009 – held by the Historisches Archiv der Stadt Köln (potentially destroyed, 2009).
  • 2009-present – status unknown.

  4. pose,stance
  5. This manuscript spells `fünf` as `vunf` so it may be Five hews. Presented hereafter are: Long edge cuts, Two types of false edge cuts, mittel-haus and wechsel-haus. So depending on whether the author categorized the two false edge cuts as one or two things, we have four or five hews.
  6. Possibly ‘Schielen II’, oblique, like a schielhau
  7. Two cuts, first with the back edge like a schielhau, the second with the back edge like the stürtzhau
  8. Auskehren
  9. A proverb similar to the one also found in Kal (Cgm 1507, 6r)
  10. The Wing Hew in accordance with Hans Sach’s account, flügel; appears in Pauernfeindt; “Wing [La Noble Science des Ioueurs Despee (1538): ‘Of the Flight’] Wing is taken from the High Guard or High Point, then initially strike from the Day to the left ear, then another from below whilst treading your left side, the thirdly strike backwards at the head.” Interestingly however, Duëz’s Französische Grammatica mentions on p531 that the translation of “l’epaule, le Flanc” in French is “der Flügel/der Streich”.

  24. Within the Range of Motion (ROM).
  25. Bogen in Meyer (1570), 2.2r, 11r ff., 17r, 36v ff., 39v ff. The implication here is that it is a small curve, bow, or arch.
