The Codex Palatine German 430 is a German fencing manual created in 1478 by Johannes Lecküchner. The original currently rests in the holdings of the Universitätsbibliothek Heidelberg in Heidelberg, Germany. This manual is believed to be the rough draft of Lecküchner's work mentioned in the preface to the 1482 version, CGM 582. As the 582 is titled Kunst des Messerfechtens, that title may also be assigned to this unillustrated draft.
