The first book in this series taught the use of the longsword, but medieval knights didn’t always have a sword at hand when trouble struck so the ability to grapple and fight with daggers was crucial in their dangerous world. In this book you’ll learn a unified system of grappling, with or without daggers, that includes sophisticated methods of breaking your opponent’s balance, strikes and kicks, defensive techniques, locks, throws, chokes, ground fighting, and fighting with daggers or against a dagger-wielding foe when you’re unarmed. You’ll also learn how to read your opponent’s intentions and use that information to overpower him easily. This book shows that grappling and dagger combat were part of the integrated whole that made up German medieval martial arts. NB: This is the perfect-bound edition.
