Longsword from the Kölner Fechtbuch
Keith Farrell / Academy of Historical Arts / Scotland
www.historical-academy.co.uk/
The MS Best.7020 is an interesting manuscript dating from the 1500s.
It contains some similarities to the Marxbrüder fencing syllabus described by Hans Sachs in 1548, although the content of the manuscript appears to be somewhat unique and does not appear to be a part of the Liechtenauer tradition like so many of the other manuals.
However, some lines of text are similar to Liechtenauer's verses.
The lesson will look at some of the longsword material from this manual and will note the similarities and differences compared to the Liechtenauer tradition of unarmoured longsword fencing.
Sources: - Anonymous, "MS Best.7020 W*150", early 1500s. - James Wallhausen, "The Fight-Lore of the Long Sword from the Kölner Fechtbuch (MS Best.7020)", 2012.
Difficulty Level: This is suitable for medium level fencer, since it is not inherently difficult, but breaks some of the normal rules of how to fence and how to move your body!
Equipment: - fencing mask (preferably with back of head protection), - longsword (preferably a long and light feder, or a synthetic with elongated pommel), - padded gloves (giving a sufficient level of protection).
Duration: 2-3 hours |

Langes Schwert – Nahkampf/Longsword - Close Combat
Ingulf Kohlweiss / Indes / Austria
www.indes.at
What to do in a fight when you get close to your opponent?
Your blade may only be used in a restricted way to threaten or wound your opponent.
Very often it is reasonable to take one hand off the grip so that new possibilities may open up.
Fencing manuals from the 14 - 17th century show various of these close combat techniques: pommel strikes, armbars and armbreaks, half swording, disarms as well as throws.
The aim of this workshop is to train entry and execution of some of these techniques.
Sources:different sources following the Liechtenauer tradition
Equipment: long sword, preferably with fencing mask (but this is not necessary)
Duration: 1,5 - 2h |

German Longsword: How to be Fast, Effective, & Safe
Anton Kohutovic / Fencing guild of Trnava, TSC / Slovakia
www.gesellschaft-lichtenawers.eu
“This must be done with speed and rather
with one strike than with four or six which
will again leave you hanging and giving the
opponent a chance to hit you.”
- Hs. 3227a
The workshop will deal with the essence of each exchange. Proper attack. There is no need for complex or sophisticated techniques or even counter techniques when we encounter only lousy cuts and thrust. Although long exchanges attract often applause of audience, winning in less actions (ideally in one) is more desirable and mainly safer. We will try learn some ways how to gain this goal.
Topics:
Footwork and body posture
Oberhaw mechanics
Vorschlag
Zornhaw ort
Ochs and zwerch
Thrusting mechanics
Schiller
Workshop by Anton Kohutovic( for intermediate to advanced students)
Assistant Martin Tibenský
Length: 2h+
Participants amount: cca. 25
Requirements: Mask, throat protection, chest protection (jacket), safe longsword (ideally folded point)

Nachreisen – das unverstandene Fechtstück
Torsten Schneyer / Zornhau / Germany
www.zornhau.de
An understanding of principles of fencing that is close to reality – The example of "Nachreisen" (After-traveling) from Cod. 44 A 8
The interpretation of historical fencing pieces often works according to book: You read the text, you reconstruct the content, you have a light bulb moment, you teach it to others in the next lessons.
In doing so, not only mistakes in interpretation can slip in, but also is this piece becoming a mere pattern that only lives on as a rudiment in the regular lesson.
On the basis of "Nachreisen" (After-traveling), Torsten Schneyer will explain why this piece is not a single technique, but a fundamental principle, which is exemplified by the manuscript's author with the help of many seemingly different "sub-pieces".
Torsten also illustrates why a simple reenactment of the piece is not unsufficient for a valid interpretation. Furthermore, he will show how timing, speed, and hardness/softness have an effect on the dynamics and the interpretation.
Sources: Cod. 44 A 8
Equipment: Fencing mask, light gloves and a longsword. A complete equipment for sparring is welcomed, but not necessary.
If there are enough armed fencers, we'll build two groups
Duration: 2h

Hellebarde in der modernen "SV"
Michael Thrun / Hanseatischen Akademie für historische Fechtkünste / Deutschland
www.hanse-fechten.de/
Historische Waffen in der Moderne
Welchen Sinn haben historische Waffen in der Moderne? Durch seinen Kontakt zur Schweizergarde und einem Seminar im Vatikan stellte
Michael Thrun sich die Frage wie die Sicherheit durch eine z.T. mit historischen Waffen ausgerüstete Militärtruppe gewährleistet werden kann.
Die Anforderungen gerade beim Personenschutz des Papstes sind enorm hoch. Zu diesem Zweck wurden verschiedene Szenarien entwickelt und
mit Angehörigen der Schweizergarde in einem Seminar zur Handhabung der Hellebarde durchgespielt. Diese Szenarien und die sich daraus
ergebenden Konsequenzen sowie der Sinn historischer Waffen in solchen Szenarien werden zusammen mit Publikum und Teilnehmern durchgespielt.
