About the Author

Paulus Kal was a fifteenth-century German fencing master. His treatise is the first attempt to give pictorial representations of Liechtenauer's tradition of fencing.


Christian Henry Tobler has been a longtime student of swordsmanship, especially as it applies to the pursuit of the chivalric ideals. A passionate advocate f the medieval Liechtenauer School, his work in translating and interpreting Sigmund Ringbeck's commentary firmly established him as an important contributor to the growing community of Western martial arts.
