Accessory or indispensable? I like to think of myself as indispensable, because I make carrying a sword or dagger much more practical. I enable knights and enthusiasts to wear their favorite weapon with flexibility. I offer them permanent availability and comfort, simply clipped to their belt.

I.33, the first fencing manual... written by a priest

Dated to the beginning of the XIVᵉ century, manuscript I.33 is the oldest of its kind. fechtbuch European sword. It shows a priest teaching a pupil the art of the sword and the bocle in a highly structured progression: seven basic "guards" and special positions, explained in Latin with borrowings from Middle German. The final pages feature a female figure, Walpurgis, whose iconography has helped to pinpoint a date around 1320-1330. The whole testifies to a refined martial practice in ecclesiastical and lay circles, far removed from clichés. I.33 has become a major reference for HEMA practitioners seeking to reconstruct medieval sword-shield fencing.
