Schermkunst (VAULT Case MS Fol.U.423.792) is a Dutch fencing manual created in 1595.^[1] It currently rests in the holdings of the Newberry Library in Chicago, IL. The manuscript appears to be incomplete in its present form; there are probably missing pages from the introduction, and it ends with only one half of an intended play of the pike.
