The Codex S.554 is an early 16th century copy of Paulus Kal's fencing manual of ca. 1470. The original currently rests in the holdings of the Zentralbibliothek Solothurn in Solothurn, Switzerland. The paper of the manuscript bears a watermark that was used between 1506 and 1514, though it may have been created after that.[1] Unfortunately, the manuscript survives only in fragmentary form: just 30 of the original 62 folia remain, including only 57 illustrations.

Kal's treatise consists of a partial redaction of the writings of Johannes Liechtenauer on Kampffechten, Roßfechten, and Bloßfechten, as well as Kal's own teachings on a variety of other weapons. It differs from the works of other followers of Liechtenauer in that instead of offering extensive glosses of the high master's verses, Kal explains them with detailed illustrations. This manuscript appears to be a text-less copy of the Cgm 1507, possibly mediated by the MS KK5126,[2] but with decidedly superior artwork to the other copies of the Kal's treatise.
