'''The first binding-on at the dagger'''
 +
 
 +
Item, conduct yourself thus in the onset with the daggers. Wind yourself with stabs and with thrusts to him [so] that your right foot stands forward.
 +
 
 +
If he thus thrusts to you at your right side and you stand also with your right foot forward against him, so take him out away from there with an outside binding [so] that your thumb stands above on your pommel. Immediately pull your dagger nimbly to yourself and thrust to him therewith at his right side.
 +
 
 +
If he should thus then thrust at you, so take that [his] away from below so that your thumb stands on your pommel and the blade lies outward on the arm.<ref>Note: Change of grip required, or the illustration does not match.</ref> Immediately step with your left leg behind his right and grab with your left hand on his right elbow. Shove him therewith from you and, simultaneous with the shove, stab at his face.
 +
 
 +
If he has thus seized you and stabs at your face, so take him away nimbly inwardly with your left hand.  Immediately set your right leg back on your right side so you wind yourself from him.

If he thus steps in front of you in the Scales and he stands with his [??lower??] [ge..nen] [ge..ch?] [tibia in Latin] leg upright in the high thrust the point turned against the man, so step with your left leg inwardly in front of his left and stab him therewith above at this face.
 +
 
 +
If he thus thrusts also at your face, so grab with your left hand on his right arm and immediately stab him inwardly under his left leg in through and heave therewith his leg well over itself and shove above with the left his right well over itself, so you bring him into disorder [schwerhe] [weakness, hardship, trouble, difficulty, vulnerability, out of balance] and to the throw.

Paulus Hector Mair (1517 – 1579) was a 16th century German civil servant and fencing enthusiast. He was born in Augsburg in 1517 to a wealthy and influential family in the German middle class (Bürger). In his youth, he likely received training in fencing and grappling from the masters of Augsburg fencing guild, and early on developed a deep fascination with fencing manuals. He began his civil service as a secretary to the Augsburg City Council; by 1541, Mair was the Augsburg City Treasurer, and in 1545 he also took on the duty of Master of Rations.

Mair lead a lavish lifestyle and maintained his political influence with expensive parties and other entertainments for the burghers and city officials of Augsburg. Despite his personal wealth and ample income, Mair spent decades living far beyond his means and taking money from the Augsburg city coffers to cover his expenses. This embezzlement was not discovered until 1579, when a disgruntled assistant reported him to the Augsburg City Council and provoked an audit of his books. Mair was arrested and tried for his crimes, and hanged as a thief at the age of 62.

While Mair is not known to have ever certified as a fencing master, he was an avid collector of fencing manuals and other literature on military history, and some portion of his embezzlement was used to fund this hobby. Perhaps most significant of all of his acquisitions was the partially-completed manual of Antonius Rast, a Master of the Longsword and one-time captain of the Marxbrüder fencing guild. The venerable master died in 1549 without completing it, and Mair ultimately was able to produce the Reichsstadt "Schätze" Nr. 82 based on his notes. In sum, he purchased over a dozen fencing manuscripts over the course of his life, many of them from fellow collector David Lienhart Sollinger (a Freifechter who lived in Augsburg for many years). After Mair's death, this collection was sold at auction as part of an attempt to recoup some of the funds Mair had appropriated.

Already in Mair's lifetime some of his people's Medieval martial arts were being forgotten; this was tragic to Mair, who viewed the arts of fencing as a civilizing and character-building influence on men. In order to preserve as much of the art as possible, Mair commissioned a massive fencing compendium titled Opus Amplissimum de Arte Athletica ("The Greatest Work on the Athletic Arts"), and in it he compiled all of the fencing lore that he could access. He retained famed Augsburg painter Jörg Breu the Younger to create the art for the text, and according to Hils Mair also hired two fencing masters to pose for the illustrations.[citation needed] This project was extraordinarily expensive and took at least four years to complete. Ultimately, three copies of the massive fencing manual—six volumes in all—were produced, the first entirely in Early New High German, another entirely in New Latin, and a third including both languages.

Whether viewed as a noble scholar who made the ultimate sacrifice for his art or an ignoble thief who robbed the city that trusted him, Mair remains one of the most influential figures in the history of Kunst des Fechtens. By completing the fencing manual of Antonius Rast, Mair gave us valuable insight into the Nuremberg fencing tradition, and his extensive commentary on the uncaptioned treatises in his collection serves to make useful training aids out of what would otherwise be mere curiosities. Finally, while his collection of manuscripts was dispersed after his death, most been preserved to this day instead of disappearing as did so many others, significantly expanding the corpus of historical European martial arts literature.
