'''[1] The Zornhaw against the Thrust'''
 +
 
 +
It happens that you stand with the Zornhaw (Wrath Strike) with the left foot forward. Then follow after with the right and hit him strongly from above to the left side. If he deflects this, then strike nimbly to the next opening.
 +
 
 +
If he strikes you wrathfully like this, then wind against the Zornhaw in the Hanging Point and let your point properly go forward shooting in (Einschiessen) to the face or chest. If he perceives this thrust, then drive with the sword well up over your head, spring with your right foot to his left side and cut him with the Zwirchhaw (Across Strike) to the head.
 +
 
 +
If he strikes towards your head like this with the Zwirchhaw with crossed arms, then displace this with your long edge, then immediately yank back your sword (as in illustration) and wind your point from your left side to his face or chest.

'''[2] The Krumphaw from Both Sides'''
 +
 
 +
When you come to the closing with the opponent, set the left foot forward and hold your sword with the point at your right side and remain hence standing in the Krumphaw (Crooked/Off-line strike). If he then strikes you from above to an opening, step outward with your right foot and give him a Krump to his right side and strike him at the nearest opening.
 +
 
 +
If he gives you a Krump like this and you stand with your right foot forward likewise in the Krumphaw, then step in with your left leg and displace his strike with your long edge. Then immediately follow outward with the right foot and drop a Krump onto his sword with your short edge and with that cut through his head.

'''[3] The Zwirchhaw from Both Sides'''
 +
 
 +
When you come to the closing with the opponent, stand with the right foot forward such that the short edge is wound towards you. Then follow outward with your left leg and strike the Zwirchhaw with crossed arms. If he displaces this, then wind in the weak and strike him long to the upper opening.
 +
 
 +
If rather you stand with the left foot forward and likewise lie against him in the Zwirch with crossed arms, then follow outward with your right foot and turn your hand so that the flat of the sword stands in front of him and strike with the Zwirch in towards his left ear. If he displaces your Zwirch, then let a double feint pass and strike him to the top of his head on the right side.

'''[4] The Schillerhaw (Squinting Strike) from Both Sides'''
 +
 
 +
When you come to the closing with the opponent, set your left leg out in front such that the short edge is wound under. Then step out with your right foot, wind your pommel beneath your right arm and set upon him with the point.
 +
 
 +
If he sets upon you with the point like this, then displace it and immediately wind in the Zwirch, hang with your sword against the Zwirch on your right side and step out with the left foot. Then wind the point in between his arms such that the short edge stays on top (as in illustration).
 +
 
 +
If he winds his point in between your arms like this, then set this aside with your long edge. With that press downward and let the weak run and strike him with the long edge to his head.

'''[5] Schaitlerhaw (Vertex Strike)'''
 +
 
 +
Stand with the left leg in front and lift your sword above your head with extended arms (as in illustration). Then spring in towards him with the right foot and strike with the long edge directly to the top of his head. Then sink the point downward to his face or chest.
 +
 
 +
When he then does the Schaitler to you, displace it with the Kron (Crown) such that the point and the hilt of your sword both stand above you.
 +
 
 +
If he then fires out to thrust the point upwards towards you, wind your sword through under his Kron with the edge against his arm and with that cut him over both of his arms.
 +
 
 +
If he cuts over your arms like this, then step back with your right foot and set his cut aside with the Krumphaw with your short edge and with that cut to his right side.

'''[6] The Ochs from Both Sides'''
 +
 
 +
It happens like this in the Ochs (Ox). Stand with the left foot forward and hold your sword with crosswise hands above your head. Then wind and step with your right foot to his right side. If he perceives this Upper Hanger, then strike in the Zwirchhaw with crossed arms.
 +
 
 +
If he strikes the Zwirch towards you like this, displace it and immediately wind and hang the point towards the face or chest. Then strike in strongly from above to his head. If he displaces this, strike the double feint, then immediately quickly take (the opening) before you from which to work a strike, thrust or cut.
 +
 
 +
If you then stand with the right foot opposite him and he works quickly at you, then set this aside with doubled cuts on both sides and immediately strike with the Zwirch with crossed arms to the right side of his head. If he displaces the Zwirch with the long edge, then let off and strike with the short edge from above.

'''[7] The Pflug from Both Sides'''
 +
 
 +
Step in towards the opponent with the right foot and hang the sword at your left side. Then drive up with the hilt over your head, step across with your left leg, and strike the Zwirch. If he perceives the Zwirch and displaces it, then spring across with your right leg and strike to the top of the head.
 +
 
 +
But if you stand opposite him in the Pflug (Plow) and he does the Schaitlerhaw to you, then wind upwards into the Prechfennster (Speaking Window) so that you are looking out through the arms and your right foot stands forward. Then drop down and strike in with the half edge to the left ear.
 +
 
 +
If he strikes you like this, then displace it with your long edge and then immediately wind with your point to his left face or chest. Then let off (Ablassen) with your sword, step with the left foot in front of his right, and strike from above to his head.

'''[8] The Alber and the Guard Vom Tag'''
 +
 
 +
Stand with your left foot forward with outstretched arms such that the point is directed at the ground and the short edge is up (Alber/Fool, at left of illustration). Then fly up with your sword with crossed arms in front of your head in the Versazung (Parry Position), step in with your right leg, and shove the point into the left side of his face.
 +
 
 +
If you should perceive this thrust and stand with your right foot opposite him in the guard vom Tag (from the Roof, at right side of illustration), then take away the thrust with a Krumphaw and strike with the Zwirch. Then immediately drop down and cut through the face.
 +
 
 +
If you perceive that he intends to cut you like this, then push away his cut with your long edge and immediately wind with your point towards the left side of his face or chest. Then follow with the left foot in front of his right and strike his right forearm.
 +
 
 +
If he strikes towards your arm like this, displace it with the long edge, step with your left foot in front of his right, and let the weak of your sword run and strike him to the top of his head.

'''[9] The Strong and Weak with Which to Instantly Note Evenness'''
 +
 
 +
You stand with the right foot forward and bind his sword with your Schweche (weak). Then determine whether he is soft or hard at his sword. When he is soft at the sword drop down on his left side, step out with your left leg, and Zuck (yank) all hits you will throw at the opponent.
 +
 
 +
When you stand opposite him likewise in the weak and he does the Zucken (yank) against you, then step back with your right foot and strike a Creizhaw (Crossing Strike) to his right ear. If he displaces your Creizhaw, then drop down and shoot the point double to the face and with that strike his head from above.
 +
 
 +
If he hits towards your head like this, then do not displace this. Rather step away from the strike to his right side and Zwirch to his head.

'''[10] A Nachraisen (Traveling After) with a Cut'''
 +
 
 +
You stand with your left foot forward in the Unterhau (Upward Strike) and he adheres to your hands from above (as in illustration). So step outward with your right foot and drop a Krump on him at your left side.
 +
 
 +
If he drops a Krump on you and you stand with your left foot forward, then drop down quickly and step out with your right leg. With that strike him from above to the right side of his head. When he displaces this, strike him from below to his left side with your long edge. Then immediately step back and strike him from above a long one to the head. If he travels after, then set the point in his chest. If he sets aside your point, then strike with extended arms back away from him.
 +
 
 +
If he strikes back away from you like this, then travel after him double with cuts and strikes from above and below, whatever he makes you do.

When you stand with your left foot forward, step outward with your right foot and strike from your right shoulder with an extended blow to his head.
 +
 
 +
If he strikes a long one like this to your head and you stand with your left foot forward, then adhere to him with the short edge, step outward with the right foot and wind to his left ear such that the hilt stands in front of your head. Should he perceive the winding and displace it, then hang and pass through with your sword and strike him to the nearest opening.
 +
 
 +
If he seeks your opening like this, then strike against him with your long edge and set this aside below and above, extend your trunk and arms well and seek with your point the opening at his face or chest. Then immediately strike a Zwirch to his head with crossed arms.
 +
 
 +
If he does the Zwirch towards you like this, then displace it with your long edge and wind the short edge to his left ear. Then yank your right foot back once again and strike to his right ear.

If he displaces the thrust, then drop down in the Underhaw such that your hilt stands before your head.
 +
 
 +
If he stands like this in front of you, then set the Krump on his sword such that your right foot stands forward, grab both blades with your left hand high in front (as in illustration) and with that pull from your right to your left side. Thus you capture his sword.
 +
 
 +
If he intends to capture your sword like this, release it, step outward with your right leg, grab his right elbow with your left hand and the back of his right knee with your right hand and with that lift directly upwards. Thus you thrust him backwards.

'''[33] An Einfallen (Dropping In) with a Cut'''
 +
 
 +
You strike with the Windthaw (winding/turning strike) and then turn out of it into a low cut towards his right side.
 +
 
 +
Should you perceive this cut, step in with your right foot and shove the cut out with your long edge. As you do this drop your long edge between his hands onto the hilt and immediately invert the right hand and sweep his sword down with the half blade the same as yours (as in illustration) and subsequently yank it out of his hands. Then cut in high or low and you have both swords.
 +
 
 +
If he will then cut like this towards you and has both swords held together, release your hands from your sword and step behind his right leg with your left and grab his waist with extended arms. Thus you throw him with both swords together.

'''[34] A Cut through the Hand'''
 +
 
 +
You come to the closing with the opponent, so set your right leg forward and from here you will strike to the high opening. Then immediately drop down and strike again low to his right side. If he displaces this, then step behind his right leg with your left and wind the Zwirch out to strike to his high opening such that your hilt stands in front of your head.
 +
 
 +
If he then strikes high towards you like this and you stand with your right foot forward, release your right hand from your hilt and grab with it to the half blade and with the left hand pull up to the cross. With that displace his strike on the sword blade between your hands and sweep his sword blade low and high with both your hands (as in illustration), then with that turn to your left side so that you cut him.

'''[35] Two Cuts from Above and from Below'''
 +
 
 +
When you come to the closing with the opponent stand with your right foot forward and strike him with the Wechsel (Changing strike). Then wind into the right Fligelhaw (Flying strike) such that your hilt stands in front of your head. Set upon him with the cut to his left side over both of his arms.
 +
 
 +
If he has set upon you with a cut like this, then step in with your left leg and set your strong outward onto both of his arms (as in illustration). Thus you counter his low cut with your high. Then follow outward with your right foot and drop a Krump over his arm.
 +
 
 +
If he does a Krump to you like this, then let the weak of your sword run, step in with your left foot and strike with the long edge high to his head. Then turn your short edge on his neck and shove him away from you. Thus he may come to no more work before you.

 +
 
 +
If he strikes against you like this and you stand with your left foot forward, set his strike aside with the short edge, follow outward with your right foot and strike to the top of his head.
 +
 
 +
If he strikes towards your high opening like this and you stand with your left foot forward, displace this with your long edge, follow outward with your right leg and Zwirch him to the left side of his head.

'''[37] A High Cut with the Schaitler'''
 +
 
 +
When you come to the closing with the opponent step forward with your left foot and strike a long one over both of his arms to his right side (as in illustration, though it shows the attack to the wrong side). Thus you may cut him low or high.
 +
 
 +
If he then strikes towards you one like this and you stand with your left foot forward, then take the cut away with a Krumphaw at your left side and with that cut him through the head.
 +
 
 +
If he cuts through your head like this, then drop another Krump on him and then likewise cut through his head on his right side. If he displaces this further, then take a double Feler (feint) to both sides and then immediately strike with crossed arms to his right ear.
 +
 
 +
Should you perceive this strike, displace it with the long edge, let the weak of your sword run, and with that strike to his right arm. Then step back and wind into the Hanging Point, immediately follow outward with the left leg and stick the point into his chest.

'''[38] Another High Cut'''
 +
 
 +
Stand with your left foot forward and strike a long one like this over both of his arms near his right ear (as in illustration). Then follow outward with your right foot and strike a Zwirch to his left side. If you have then struck the Zwirch, yank your sword free up over your head and make as if you will strike to the top of his head. Then immediately step with your left leg around to his right side and cut over his arm.
 +
 
 +
If he cuts over your arm like this, displace this cut with the long edge, turn the sword with the short edge onto his blade and with that strike to his head.
 +
 
 +
Should you perceive this strike, displace it with your long edge and immediately shoot to his face or chest out of the Ochsen (Ox) with crossed arms. If he displaces this, then spring with your left foot onto his left side and strike with the Zwirch to his head.

'''[39] An Inverting Cut with an Ansezen (Set Upon)'''
 +
 
 +
When you both come together at the closing stand with your left foot forward and take care of the opening over his left arm with your cut and set upon him with the long edge such that the cross stands on his elbow. Then shove him away from you (as in illustration).
 +
 
 +
If he then shoves you away like this, take your left leg and pivot to your right. Thus you go out of the cut. With that strike high to the right side of his head such that your left leg comes forward again. Then immediately follow outward with your right foot again and strike to his head with the long edge out of the stance vom Tag (from the roof). If he displaces this, then strike his right arm with a Fligelhaw (flying strike) from below. If he travels after the strike and will shove it away, then strike him to the high opening with your short edge.
 +
 
 +
If he strike towards you like this and you stand with your left foot forward, Zwirch to the right side of his head.

'''[40] Another Inverting Cut'''
 +
 
 +
When you both come together at the closing take note of the level of the opening at his arm and set upon him with your long edge on his right shoulder and your cross below his right shoulder and with this shove him out in front of you.
 +
 
 +
If he shoves you away like this and you have your hands crossed in front of your head (as in illustration), then step out in front of you with your right leg, pivot backwards with your left and thrust your point in his face. If he displaces your thrust, then quickly take the timing in front of you and strike low and high to his four openings.
 +
 
 +
If he seeks your openings like this, then hang and wind out of the Pflug to strike him strongly from above. If he displaces this, then follow outward with your right leg, dopelier (double) high, ajundier (mutate?) low and with that seek his openings as well.

'''[41] The First Cut from Below'''
 +
 
 +
When you come to the closing with the opponent pay attention to whether he seems high of low opposite you. If he goes high with his arms opposite you, then cut him from below. If he rather goes low with his arms opposite you, then cut him from above.
 +
 
 +
If you then stand opposite him with your left foot forward and he cuts from below towards you (as in illustration), then step back with your left foot and set the long edge upon his sword. Thus you have countered the cut from below and may work whatever you want low or high to his openings. Then immediately strike to his right ear with crossed arms. If he displaces this, then yank back your sword to half blade and strike again wherever you want. Then immediately wind with crossed arms and thrust your point into his face again from your left to his right side.

'''[42] The Other Cut from Below'''
 +
 
 +
When you both come together at the closing, take note of the openings at his body low and high. If he then strikes high towards your head, cut in from below through his arm (as in illustration).
 +
 
 +
If he cuts towards you from below, step with your left leg in front of his right and strike the Zwirch with crossed arms to hit him at the right side of his head. Then spring to his right side with your right foot out of the Zwirch and strike long as you move away from him.
 +
 
 +
If he has struck away from you like this, then travel after him double with cuts and strikes and strike with the long edge to the high opening.
 +
 
 +
If he strikes high towards you like this and you have leaned backwards, then step in again with your left leg as you wind and hang up over your head with your blade on your right side so that his strike goes away off of your blade. With that strike high to his head.

 +
 
 +
If he winds the point towards your face like this and you likewise stand opposite him in the Hanging with your right set forward, then follow outward with your left leg and shove out into the winding with the long edge to your right side with crossed hands. Let the weak of your sword run and strike him high. If he displaces this, then Zwirch to his right side. If he displaces this as well, then follow outward with your right leg and Zwirch to the left side of his head.

If he winds the point towards your face like this, then take his point away to your left side with the short edge. Then follow outward with your right foot and cut him through the head.
 +
 
 +
If he intends to cut you like this and you stand with your right foot forward, then set this aside with your short edge. Then immediately follow outward with your left foot and cut through his head also with the short edge.

Follow outward with your left leg, wind into the Krumphaw shooting the short edge over his sword and then strike to his head with your long edge.
 +
 
 +
If you then also stand like this in the Winding with the right foot opposite him and he shoots over you and strikes high, then let your wind run double and strike with the long edge against his strike. Follow outward with the left foot and you may work from there with strikes, thrusts, and cuts.
 +
 
 +
If he fires strikes and thrusts at you like this, then displace this with the Krieg (in-fighting) and work with his Schwech (weak) and Sterck (strong), in the Vor (before) and the Nach (after).

Then immediately Dopelier (double) out and release your left hand from your sword’s pommel, step outward with your right foot, grab with an inverted hand on the pommel such that your thumb stands high, and shoot the point to his face.
 +

 +
 
 +
When you come together at the closing, stand with your left foot forward and strike to his high opening (as in illustration), then follow outward with your right leg, yank back your strike again, and with that quickly strike him once more high on the right side of his head.

 +
 
 +
If you then stand with your right foot opposite him and hold your sword under your left shoulder and he stabs towards your face, then grab to your half blade, drive out in front of your head, and thrust his point away with the Kron (Crown). Then you may thrust your point to the face or chest, and may also hit to his head with the pommel.
 +
 
 +
If he intends to hit you with the pommel like this, displace this also with the Kron and immediately stab your point in his face and then hit with your pommel to his head.

'''[68] A Reissen (Snatching) with a Sword Capture'''
 +
 
 +
When you come together at the closing and the other binds on the Schildt (shield), set your left foot forward and strike to his left side with your short edge.
 +
 
 +
If he then strikes towards your left side and you stand with your left foot forward, then drop a Krumb on his sword and step with your right foot outside behind his left. Thus his sword comes under your left shoulder. Drop your right hand on his handle and come to the aide of your right with your left. With that turn to your left side and you may throw him or capture the sword.
 +
 
 +
If he will capture your sword, then release it and grab with your right hand forward onto his right and with your left on his right elbow and with that shove away from you. Thus you may lock his arm.
 +
 
 +
Should you perceive this armlock, step with your left foot onto his right side and come to the aide of your right hand with the left (as in illustration). Then you turn yourself out of the armlock.

'''[69] The Wechsel from which the Thrust Proceeds'''
 +
 
 +
It happens like this in the Wechsel (Changer): stand with your left foot forward and strike with your sword out in front of his face such that your short edge stands high and then wind your sword at your left side with crossed hands and put the point in his face as you follow outward with your right leg. Thus the point comes in at him twice.
 +
 
 +
If you then stand like this in the Wechsel opposite him such that your right foot stands forward and you perceive the double thrust, then step back with your right leg and shove the thrust away with your long edge. Then immediately wind your short edge onto his sword, step in again with your left foot, and press his sword at your right arm. Then you may cut to his high opening.
 +
 
 +
If he intends to cut towards you like this, displace him with the Krumphaw and with that cut to his head. If he sets this aside, then wind into the Hanging Point such that your hilt stands in front of your head, follow outward with the left foot, and wind the point double to his face.

'''[70] The Einkiren with an Absetzen'''
 +
 
 +
When you come before the opponent, it happens like this in the Einkiren (Unicorn): stand with your left foot forward with arms inverted in front of your head such that the short edge stands below and the point is opposite the opponent (as in illustration). Follow outward with your right foot and with that stab your point to his face or chest. Then immediately wind into the Zwirch and strike to his right side with crossed hands.
 +
 
 +
If he then fires the Einkiren at you like this, set your left foot forward and set aside the Einkiren with your long edge. Follow outward with your right leg and strike high to his head with your long edge. If he displaces this, then immediately work quickly from one opening to another low and high, wherever he makes you.
 +
 
 +
If he seeks your openings like this, then immediately work with him quickly at the Vor and at the Nach. If it is the Vor, you come to the lead. If it is the Nach, you strike after.

'''[71] A Right and a Left Thrust'''
 +
 
 +
It happens like this in the left thrust: set your right foot forward and hold your sword over your head with extended arms such that the point stands to the rear (as in illustration). Then follow outward with your left leg and shoot the point to his face from your left to his right side. If he displaces this, wind into the Hanging Point and strike again at his left side.
 +
 
 +
If you then stand like this opposite him with your right foot forward such that the hilt is in front of your head and the point stands opposite the opponent and he strikes double at you, displace this and let the weak run double. Then immediately seek the next upper two openings.
 +
 
 +
If he seeks your upper openings like this, block this and immediately strike quickly with the short edge to his head. If he displaces this, immediately wind quickly to his face, follow outward with your right leg, and strike high to his head.

'''[72] A Thrust to the Face out of the Bind'''
 +
 
 +
When you come together at the closing and the other has bound at the swords, stand with your right foot forward in the bind, then follow outward with your left leg and strike to the high opening.
 +
 
 +
If he then strikes a high one towards you like this and you stand with your left foot forward, displace this. If he then yanks back and intends to strike again, bring your pommel in between both his arms towards his face (as in illustration). Thus you split his arms one from another and can also strike, cut, or stab through his head.
 +
 
 +
Should you perceive this previously described technique and he will counter you with his pommel, then press downward with your hands on his arms and immediately cut to his head.
 +
 
 +
Should you perceive this cut, set your long edge on his right arm and with that slash and cut on the right side to his next opening.

'''[73] A Position out of the Pflug against the Oberhaw'''
 +
 
 +
It happens like this: stand with your right foot forward with your sword flat such that the point is opposite the ground. If he then strikes the Oberhaw at you (as in illustration), step in front with your left leg and set his strike aside with crossed arms with the long edge, then stab to the left side of his face. Thus you wind into the Hanging Point.
 +
 
 +
If he stabs towards your face like this and you stand with your right foot forward, spring with your left foot onto his left side and set the stab aside. Then step with your right foot well onto his right side and strike quickly high to his head. If he displaces this, then take the Dopelhaw (Doubled Strike) with a thrust and work towards his next opening.
 +
 
 +
If he seeks your opening like this, follow outward with your right leg, hang and wind against his strike so that his blow is displaced. Then immediately strike with crossed arms to the right side of his head.

'''[74] Two High Strikes to the Head'''
 +
 
 +
When you come to the closing with the opponent, set your left foot forward and immediately take note of the level of his strike. If he strikes high towards your head, step with your right foot behind your left and wind the hilt out in front of your head. Thus his strike goes aside on your flat. Then follow outward with your right foot and with that hit high to the top of his head.
 +
 
 +
If he then strikes a high one towards you like this and you stand opposite him with your left foot, set his strike aside with your short edge and cut through his face with your long (edge).
 +
 
 +
If he intends to cut you like this, release your left hand from your sword and thrust on his right elbow. Thus you shove him away from you and have taken his strength so that he cannot work further.

If you then stand opposite him like this also with your left foot forward and he strikes high towards your right side, displace this with your long edge, and during the displacement release your right hand from your sword and grab his left with it.
 +
 
 +
If he has then released his right hand from his sword and grabbed your left, release your left hand from your sword as well and grab his blade as well as your own (as in illustration). Then step with your right foot behind his left and turn from him to your left side. Thus you capture his sword.

When you come to the opponent at the closing, stand with your left foot forward and bind on his sword. If he holds strongly against you in the bind, then drop your pommel over his arm and with that snatch him towards you (as in illustration).
 +
 
 +
If he snatches you towards himself like this, set your right leg behind his left, let your sword fall and grab his jaw with your left hand and his left leg half-way above the knee with your right hand. With that you may throw him backwards.
 +
 
 +
If he holds you like this, grab your sword’s blade with your left hand near the point and set your sword between between hands onto his neck. With that you shove him away from you and he must release you.
 +
 
 +
If he has then set upon you like this and has shoved you away from him, turn yourself to the rear and cut to his head with doubled cuts. That is, with short and long edges.

 +
 
 +
If you then stand with your left foot opposite him and he intends to cut you, release your left hand from your pommel, thrust your sword through between his arms towards his face and immediately grab with your left hand over his right arm forward on your sword’s blade (as in illustration). Then step in towards him with your right leg and wind your sword to your left side such that your pommel comes upward. Thus you cut over both of his arms and may thrust the pommel into his face or chest.

 +
 
 +
If he then holds you like this, likewise release your left hand from your sword and capture him powerfully near the right elbow and with your pommel over his right arm (as in illustration). Then yank towards you. If you have grabbed him powerfully like this, shove upwards. Thus you lock his arm.
 +
 
 +
If he will lock your arm, then let your sword fall and thrust with your right hand on his jaw. Thus you throw him backwards.
 +

When you come to the opponent at the closing, stand with the right foot forward and strike to his right arm. If he displaces this, then act as if you will strike him high but immediately thrust your pommel into his face (as in illustration).
 +
 
 +
Should you perceive this thrust, step inward with your right foot in front of his right and put your head through his right arm. Thus you go out of the thrust and with that can thrust the pommel into his right side.
 +
 
 +
If he thrusts to your right side like this, set the short edge of your sword on his neck.
 +
 
 +
Should you perceive this setting upon, step back with your right foot. Then you may strike, cut, or stab him. If he will work against you like this at the same time, then work with him also weak and strong. With that you take the initiative to his next opening.

'''[83] A Throw out of the Strong to the Weak'''
 +
 
 +
When you come together at the closing and the other has you in the bind, let your sword fall, stand with your right foot forward, and thrust your head into his abdomen. At the same time sweep both of your hands behind his knees (as in illustration). Thus you may throw him on the back or outward over your head.
 +
 
 +
If he then holds you like this and intends to throw you, thrust your pommel onto his head. Then he must release you.
 +
 
 +
Should you perceive this thrust, put your arms on both his arms and with that lift upwards. At the same time kick your left foot behind his right and thrust high away from you. Thus he falls on the back.
 +
 
 +
If he intends to thrust you backwards like this, then likewise let your sword fall and grab with both hands near the middle of his body. Thus you may carry him away or throw him from you.

| '''[84] A Strike with a Verkerer (Inverter)'''
 +
When you come to the opponent at the closing and he is opposite you, strike high to his head.
 +
 
 +
If he then strikes a high one towards you like this, displace this and immediately step inward with your right foot in front of his right. Release your left hand from your sword and thrust against his right elbow. Set your long edge upon his right hand near his sword and shove away from you. Thus you spin him around (as in illustration).
 +
 
 +
If he spins you like this and has released his left hand from his sword, then step backwards with your right foot. Thus you will be free of him. Then strike with a long high one.
 +
 
 +
If he goes out of the Verkerer (Inverter/Spinner) like this and strikes a long high one at your head, drive out with your sword and grab with your left hand around to your pommel. Thus you displace his strike, and then strike to his right arm.

'''[85] A Verkerer with an Ansetzen'''
 +
 
 +
When you come together at the closing stand with your right foot forward and strike with the Underhaw long to his left side such that your hilt stands in front of your head.
 +
 
 +
If he strikes one towards you like this and you stand with your right foot forward, displace this and then immediately release your right hand from your sword and set it upon his right elbow (as in illustration). With that wind your head through his right arm as you let your sword fall. Then grab with your left hand onto your right side (likely at your right shoulder) and with your right forward near his right (hand). Thus you can lock his arm outward or inward.
 +
 
 +
If he will lock your arm like this, release your left hand from your sword, drop it onto his right elbow, follow outward with the left leg, let your sword likewise fall, and grab with your right hand behind his right knee. Thus you may throw him as well.

 +
If he yanks the sword through your hands like this and you stand with your left foot forward, travel after him and cut through the head with your long edge (as in illustration).
 +
 
 +
If he will cut through your head like this, then set this aside with the flat of your sword, step backwards with your right foot, and strike to his right arm. If he displaces your strike, then let a double Feler (feint) run and strike to his left side. Then immediately hang, wind, and shoot your point to his face or chest.

'''[91] A Sword Capture with a Cut'''
 +
 
 +
It happens like this at the closing: stand with your right foot forward and strike a long high one to his head. If he displaces this and strikes inward at you as well, then release your left hand from your pommel; hold both swords together, and with that snatch to your left side. Thus you capture his sword.
 +
 
 +
If he snatches from you towards himself like this, step with your left foot on his right (as in illustration), then step outward with your right and cut him with your long edge. Then shove him away from you. Thus you free your sword and immediately strike quickly with a high one.
 +
 
 +
If he strikes one towards you like this, displace it with your long edge. Thus you come high to the cut again and may strike, cut, or stab him.
 +
 
 +
If he will work at you at the same time like this, step back with your right foot. Thus you may also go at him with a counter, strike, thrust, or cut and work quickly with him in the Vor and in the Nach.

 +
 
 +
If you then stand with your right foot forward and he steps towards you with his left and grabs your pommel with his left hand, then grab your blade with your left hand and sweep his arm onto the hilt (as in illustration). Then immediately wind his arm back to the rear on your right side. Thus you lock his arm aside.

Then immediately release your left hand from your pommel, set it on his left elbow, and cut under his left shoulder with your right hand with your long edge (as in illustration). Then shove him away from you. Thus you spin him.
 +
 
 +
If he intends to spin you like this set your left leg back. Thus you go out of the spin. Then immediately cut to his head.

'''[99] An Einprechen with a Cut'''
 +
 
 +
So you come together at the closing and strike out like this against the other: stand with your left foot forward and take note of the Einprechen (entry) in the striking out.
 +
 
 +
If he then strikes out in front of you like this and goes out high with his arms, break in upon him with the point between his arms such that your hand with your cross stands upon his chest.
 +
 
 +
If he has broken in on you like this, then step with your left foot around the back of his left knee from the outside, with that yank directly downward as you set your long edge on his neck (as in illustration). Then cut him to the ground.
 +
 
 +
If he intends to cut you to the ground like this, step with your right foot in front of his left and immediately set your cross on his chest. With that shove him away from you as you yank your left towards you. Thus you throw the cut and the Hacken (Leg Hook) free. Then immediately strike quickly to his right side.

'''[100] Two Underhaw from Both Sides'''
 +
 
 +
When you come together at the closing with the Underhaw, set your right leg in front and strike towards his left side (as in illustration).
 +
 
 +
If he then also stands with the right foot opposite you and strikes at your left side, step with your left foot behind his right and strike high to his head.
 +
 
 +
If he strikes towards your head like this and you stand with your right foot forward, follow outward with your left and displace his strike with your long edge. Then immediately thrust your left foot to his groin.
 +
 
 +
If he thrusts towards your groin like this, release your left hand from your sword, sweep his left leg, and lift it upward. Thus you throw him on his back.
 +
 
 +
If he has grabbed your left leg like this and will throw you backwards, set your point on his neck and shove him away from you. Thus he must release you.

'''[101] An Oberhaw with an Einschiessen'''
 +
 
 +
When you come to the opponent at the closing, stand with your left foot forward and strike the Oberhaw in strongly from above to his head. If he displaces your strike, wind your short edge on his neck and immediately strike quickly with crossed arms around to the right side of his head with the Zwirch.
 +
 
 +
If he strikes the Zwirch against you like this, displace it with your long edge and step with your left foot inside in front of his left. Then immediately release your left hand from your pommel and grab him behind his left knee. With that lift directly upwards and shoot your short edge over both of his arms (as in illustration). Then shove high directly away from you. Thus you may throw him.
 +
 
 +
If he intends to throw you like this, cut strongly from high downwards. Thus he must release you. Then immediately wind into the Hanging Point, step outward with your right leg, and strike to his right ear.

'''[102] A Throw at the Sword'''
 +
 
 +
When you both strike in at the other strongly with the Zornhaw and each intend to displace high at his head, determine whether he is soft or hard at his sword. If he is soft and does not hold strongly against you, then wind your short edge at his left ear. If he displaces this, then immediately let your sword fall and stoop with your head between his legs, grab around both of his knees with your arms, and with that lift upwards. Thus you throw him or may carry him wherever you want (as in illustration).
 +
 
 +
If he holds you for a throw like this or will carry you away, let your sword fall, grab with your left hand to his left foot and with your right inside to his groin. Thus you stop the throw and lock him in so that he can no longer hurt you by throwing you from him.

When you come together at the closing and the other has you in the bind, stand with your right foot forward and immediately work quickly with him weak and strong and wind your pommel between his arms.
 +
 
 +
If he intends to wind in upon you like this, set this aside with the Kron and immediately stab with your point to his face or chest. If he sets your point aside, cut over both of his arms and with that snatch his sword out of his hands.
 +
 
 +
If he snatches your sword out of your hands like this and you stand with your left foot forward, then grab with your right hand at his right side and with your left at his left side with extended arms. Thus you throw him onto his head (as in illustration).

When you come together at the closing, stand with your left foot forward and hit from below at his left ear.
 +
 
 +
If you then stand with your left foot opposite him and he hits towards your left ear like this, displace this with your long edge, immediately let the weak of your sword run, and strike to his right ear with crossed arms. If he displaces this, let your sword fall, thrust your right hand on his jaw, and grab high at the right side of his head with your left. Thus you turn his face against the sun.

When you come together at the closing and each hit together with high strikes, it happens like this: stand with your right foot forward and immediately let your sword fall. Then grab with your left hand on his right and with your right between both of his arms inside to his right elbow bend. Then turn yourself upwards on your left side to lock his arm (as in illustration).
 +
 
 +
If he will then lock your arm and you stand with your right foot forward and hold your sword in your left hand, drop your pommel over his right arm and snatch directly downwards. Thus you have countered him and may yank your long edge over his head and quickly stab your point to his face.

'''[116] The Fourth Kampstuck of the Longsword'''
 +
 
 +
When you come together at the closing and both fire the points at each other’s chest, then stand with your left foot forward, step with the right outward, and strike with the pommel to his left ear.
 +
 
 +
If he strikes like this to your left ear, do not displace him, but rather thrust with your point to his face or chest.
 +
 
 +
If he thrusts like this to your face, then set his point aside with your point and wind your pommel under his left arm. Pull with that towards your right side.
 +
 
 +
If he pulls you like this towards him, then release your left hand from your blade and wind inside between his arms. Then immediately pull upward at your right side.
 +
 
 +
If he pulls you like this towards him, then release your left hand from your blade and thrust in with that on his right elbow. Thus you have him locked, and may work with him as you will.

'''[117] The Fifth Kampfstuck of the Longsword'''
 +
 
 +
It happens hence that you stand in the Kampfstuck with your left foot forward and hold your sword behind your neck such that the point stands against the opponent. Step out with your right leg and grip with our right hand to your left on your sword blade and strike him with the pommel to his neck.
 +
 
 +
Should you perceive this blow and stand with your left foot forward, then go up with your sword into the Kron and displace him with the portion of your blade between your hands. Follow with the right foot outward and set your pommel behind his neck, and with that pull to your right side.
 +
 
 +
If he pulls you like this, then grip your hilt once again with your right hand and set your right leg behind your left. Thus you should stop his pulling and cut over both of his arms.
 +
 
 +
Should you perceive such a cut, then set it aside with the Kron. Then immediately thrust to his face with your point.

'''[118] The Sixth Kampfstuck of the Longsword'''
 +
 
 +
It happens hence that you stand with this Kampfstuck with your left leg forward and hold your sword at your chest such that the point is directed downwards. Step in with your right foot and wind your point to his face or chest.
 +
 
 +
If he winds the point to you like this and you stand with your right foot forward, then take his point away with the foremost part of your point. Then immediately drop your crossguard onto the bend of his left elbow and pull towards you with that to your right side.
 +
 
 +
If he has you locked up like this and intends to pull you, then release your left hand from your blade and grip your pommel. Then immediately step backwards and thrust to his groin.
 +
 
 +
Should you perceive such a thrust, then displace it with the portion of your blade between your hands, follow with your left leg outward and thrust him also to the groin. If he displaces this, then strike him with your pommel to his head.

'''[119] The Seventh Kampfstuck of the Longsword'''
 +
 
 +
It happens hence that you stand in this Kampfstuck with your left foot forward and hold the sword in the manner of the Pflug, and grip with your left hand on your blade such that the point stands against the opponent. Step outward with your right foot, lift up powerfully over your head, and with that thrust at him in whatever opening you see.
 +
 
 +
If he thrusts towards you like this and you are also positioned in the manner of the Pflug with your left foot forward, then follow with your right foot outward and displace his thrust with the portion of your blade between your hands.
 +
 
 +
If he displaces your thrust like this, then wind with your pommel outward over his right arm and shove him away from you. Thus you lock his arm.
 +
 
 +
If he shoves you from him like this, then step back with your left leg. If he then travels after you, wind your point double towards his face or chest.

'''[120] The Eighth Kampfstuck of the Longsword'''
 +
 
 +
It happens consequently that you stand in the Kampfstuck with both feet together and hold your sword with your right hand above your head and the left on your blade such that the point is directed downwards. Step in with your left leg and wind the point to his groin.
 +
 
 +
If he thrusts at your groin like this, then stand with your right foot forward such that your body hangs back. You then hold your blade with crosswise arms under your left shoulder, then you move your arm up and set the thrust aside. Then immediately follow with the left leg outward and wind the point to his face.
 +
 
 +
If he thrusts you double at your face like this, then follow with your right foot outward and set the thrust aside with your point. Then immediately strike him with your pommel to his right side.

Paulus Hector Mair (1517 – 1579) was a 16th century German civil servant and fencing enthusiast. He was born in Augsburg in 1517 to a wealthy and influential family in the German middle class (Bürger). In his youth, he likely received training in fencing and grappling from the masters of Augsburg fencing guild, and early on developed a deep fascination with fencing manuals. He began his civil service as a secretary to the Augsburg City Council; by 1541, Mair was the Augsburg City Treasurer, and in 1545 he also took on the duty of Master of Rations.

Mair lead a lavish lifestyle and maintained his political influence with expensive parties and other entertainments for the burghers and city officials of Augsburg. Despite his personal wealth and ample income, Mair spent decades living far beyond his means and taking money from the Augsburg city coffers to cover his expenses. This embezzlement was not discovered until 1579, when a disgruntled assistant reported him to the Augsburg City Council and provoked an audit of his books. Mair was arrested and tried for his crimes, and hanged as a thief at the age of 62.

While Mair is not known to have ever certified as a fencing master, he was an avid collector of fencing manuals and other literature on military history, and some portion of his embezzlement was used to fund this hobby. Perhaps most significant of all of his acquisitions was the partially-completed manual of Antonius Rast, a Master of the Longsword and one-time captain of the Marxbrüder fencing guild. The venerable master died in 1549 without completing it, and Mair ultimately was able to produce the Reichsstadt "Schätze" Nr. 82 based on his notes. In sum, he purchased over a dozen fencing manuscripts over the course of his life, many of them from fellow collector David Lienhart Sollinger (a Freifechter who lived in Augsburg for many years). After Mair's death, this collection was sold at auction as part of an attempt to recoup some of the funds Mair had appropriated.

Already in Mair's lifetime some of his people's Medieval martial arts were being forgotten; this was tragic to Mair, who viewed the arts of fencing as a civilizing and character-building influence on men. In order to preserve as much of the art as possible, Mair commissioned a massive fencing compendium titled Opus Amplissimum de Arte Athletica ("The Greatest Work on the Athletic Arts"), and in it he compiled all of the fencing lore that he could access. He retained famed Augsburg painter Jörg Breu the Younger to create the art for the text, and according to Hils Mair also hired two fencing masters to pose for the illustrations.[citation needed] This project was extraordinarily expensive and took at least four years to complete. Ultimately, three copies of the massive fencing manual—six volumes in all—were produced, the first entirely in Early New High German, another entirely in New Latin, and a third including both languages.

Whether viewed as a noble scholar who made the ultimate sacrifice for his art or an ignoble thief who robbed the city that trusted him, Mair remains one of the most influential figures in the history of Kunst des Fechtens. By completing the fencing manual of Antonius Rast, Mair gave us valuable insight into the Nuremberg fencing tradition, and his extensive commentary on the uncaptioned treatises in his collection serves to make useful training aids out of what would otherwise be mere curiosities. Finally, while his collection of manuscripts was dispersed after his death, most been preserved to this day instead of disappearing as did so many others, significantly expanding the corpus of historical European martial arts literature.
