What is #HEMA?
5/6

But it's not all #KdF. There were others like #Fiore de'i Liberi, who wrote the #FlosDuellatorum (#FlowerOfBattle), where he explores basically the same weapons, but with a different style.

In the following centuries we have a bunchload of treatises: #saber and #smallsword from the napoleonic era, #staff and pole weapon systems from the late middle ages, #rapier from the Iberian and Italian, #boxing and #bartitsu from the late victorian Britain... take your pick.
