Hans von Speyer's Fechtbuch (MS M.Ⅰ.29) is a German fencing manual compiled in 1491 by Hans von Speyer.[1] The original currently rests in the holdings of the Universitätsbibliothek Salzburg in Salzburg, Austria. It is important to note that Hans von Speyer was a scribe, not a master, and the M.Ⅰ.29 is a compilation text consisting of treatises on a variety of martial topics, by several different masters who stood in the tradition of Johannes Liechtenauer. This manuscript is the first to include the works of Martin Syber and Johannes Lecküchner with the Liechtenauer tradition.
