What are the most through sources for s&d? Also do we have any medieval sources for s&d? I Have John's book and Terry Brown's English Martial Arts, as well as some of the Ren manuals that have s&d, but want more.
Most sword and dagger manuals are going to come from the later cut and thrust plus the rapier manuals. Look at Cappo Ferro, Fabris, Alferi, Digrassi, etc.
Hope this helps.

Umm...Brian, S&D is going to naturally predate rapier: Marozzo, Mancilino, Altoni, Vigianni, Di Grassi, even the "rappier" of Mair and Meyer, etc., plus Silver and others.
Do NOT send me private messages via Forum messenger. I NEVER read them. To contact me please use direct email instead.
agreed. I meant later than medieval sources and the older sources like the I.33, Fiore, Lichtenaurer, etc. Rereading my post I can see where it might have been confusing. Bad communication on my part. <img src="/forum/images/icons/frown.gif" alt="" />
That should teach me to make a quick reply just before going to bed when my head is fuzzy. <img src="/forum/images/icons/smile.gif" alt="" />
