Sigmund Ringeck's Knightly Art of the Longsword | David Lindholm, Peter Svard

2 posts | 1 to read

Ringeck's invaluable 15th-century compilation of the lessons of German fencing master Johannes Liechtenauer is given new life by two modern students of the sword. The original text is presented with extensive interpretations and detailed, instructive drawings to capture the medieval swordsman's art.

Sigmund Ringeck's Knightly Art of the Longsword | David Lindholm, Peter Svard

This beautiful volume translating and demonstrating Sigmund Ringeck's work on longsword technique arrived today. I snagged it off Thriftbooks for only $28, a fraction of what it typically goes for on the used market as it has been out of print for some time now.

Sigmund Ringeck's Knightly Art of the Longsword | David Lindholm, Peter Svard

Just got an email letting me know this was available on Thriftbooks. This is an incredible find. This book is out of print and a popular resource in the HEMA community. The same hardcover book on Amazon is going for $700+. I'll take this copy for $28 thank you very much!
