Hello all!

After my first book on the long sword I now finished my second one on sword and buckler. The main part of the book covers the I.33 but Talhoffer, Lignitzer and Kal are included. Find some information below.

Hi Andreas,

It is indeed a shame that you didn't know anything about my first book...but only a small one ;)
Thanks for the kind words about Ars Gladii.

I am looking forward to see you in Vienna.

machs gut - bis bald!

Congrats! If it comes to English, I may well have to pick up a copy. I don't focus on sword and buckler these days, but I am still a fan of it.

Yeah, herbert, you should push your publisher to translate it into english for all of us over here in the US...and well I guess those in the UK too :) .

Congratulations Herbert!!

This looks really interesting.

All the best,

Christian

Thank you very much, Christian.

I really hope that there will be a translation soon.

Herbert

Herbert,

Congratulations on this new book! I look forward seeing it myself.
You will bring it along to Solingen in May, will you not?

Yes - I will of course!

Looking forward to see you there!

Herbert

Congratulations Herbert!

Obviously, I'm linguistically challenged here, but I certainly like the cover presentation! ;) Regardless, it's great to see more people making their findings available across the world.

Herbert, it looks great. I'm sorry I never heard back from the fellow who collects period bucklers, were you able to find enough examples for your needs?
