Introduction and BKB interests

[Gerard Kraay]

Greetings just joined thought I would introduce my self. I’m 33 and living in Auckland New Zealand, have been training on and off in WMA for around 15 years, though when I first started we all thought the stage fighting we were doing was for real, boy times and knowledge has changed and advanced.
I train with the Auckland school of European martial arts www.swordsmanship.co.nz the school teaches a wide range of weapons and unarmed.
I am personally training in and researching unarmed fighting styles, currently concentrating on bare-knuckle boxing (BKB).
I have a copy of Price’s manual and the lessons on Mendoza but would like to read anything on BKB that people could point me at.

Thanks

I can't steer you to BKB sources, but if the unarmed predecessors to BKB are your interest, Nicholas Petter (the dutch guide to brawling), Meyer's ringen chapter (fun with knives), Von Auerswald (reads like a german judo manual with great pictures!), the Codex Wallerstein and Talhoffer should be enough to keep you busy for a while.
