Scientia e Prattica dell'Arme ("The Science and Practice of Arms"; GI kongelig Samling 1868 4040) is a 17th century Italian fencing manual completed in 1601 by Salvator Fabris.[citation needed] It resides in the holdings of Det Kongelige Bibliotek in Copenhagen, Denmark. This lavish manuscript presaged the production and publication of an even more extensive rapier manual in 1606, Lo Schermo, overo Scienza d’Arme ("On Defense, or the Science of Arms").
