Der Allten Fechter gründtliche Kunst ("The Ancient Fencer's Thorough Art") is a German fencing manual printed in the 16th century by Christian Egenolff. The text is largely a redaction of Andre Paurenfeyndt's earlier treatise Ergrundung Ritterlicher Kunst der Fechterey, but with significant unique material. Egenolff reset the text and hired noted Strassbourg artist Hans Weiditz to illustrate it.

Publication History
The first three printings of the book are undated, but the first edition, titled Der Allten Fechter gründtliche Kunst, must have been printed between 1531, when Egenolff set up his shop in Frankfurt-am-Main, and Weiditz' death in 1537; a copy of the first edition that recently came up for auction was dated to ca. 1535,[1] but this date seems speculative. The second edition, titled Der Altenn Fechter an fengliche Kunst, and the third edition, titled Fechtbuch. Die Ritterliche, Mannliche Kunst, were released some time before Egenolff's own death in 1555. In 1558, Egenolff's heirs published a fourth edition (titled the same as the third) posthumously.[2]
In the 1600s, a fairly faithful manuscript including portions of both this text and Albrecht Dürer's OPLODIDASKALIA sive Armorvm Tractandorvm Meditatio Alberti Dvreri was created by an unknown scribe (it has since been lost).
