| <p>'''Looking for Weaknesses.'''</p>
 +
In this, like in all fencing, it is to pay the utmost attention to strengths and weaknesses. So as you come up to someone, concentrate your efforts to where he is strong so that you strike with vengeance at his nearest weakness (like how every single strength brings its weakness) and exploit it. Thus you bring him to ruin.

| <p>'''Counter.'''</p>

It is also of equal worth to have the Indes, which is: at the right time, you do not strike in the work but instead gently walk around him, then one will note that your every action is free.

In the first attack, go to the right and towards him and quickly seize his leg with your hand, and with your other hand in his face, strike his chest with your head. Thus he falls on his back.

If someone has blinded you above and seized you below, then press both hands hard on his head, since he is weak there. Thus he sits on his butt.

You want to seize both of his arms in the first attack and push both of them firmly over each other, so that you greatly weaken him to be thrown and swung afterwards as you please.

| <p>'''Throwing Off.'''</p>

If someone grabs you in the middle, thinking to knock you onto your back with their head, then seize both of his shoulders in the Indes, or else however you can grab him there on his jacket, and step forward with a leg. Thus you swing him over so that he must fall.

| <p>'''"Mouse" Grabbing.'''</p>

If someone has placed himself in guard, then it is a grab to the upper front part of the legs near his manhood, so that one can be thrown and grabbed wantonly and easily, as is shown in the figure.

If someone has grabbed you so firmly that you cannot dare to escape, and if he also is pushing you down, then jerk him to you with your hand by the backs of his knees so that he stands the strongest, then strike upwards from yourself. Thus he lets go with his hands.

If he is standing near your right side, put your right arm around his waist and turn him with a jerk. Put your right foot forward in front of his waist or otherwise with his body behind it. That gives your lift strength, so he falls over your leg.

Whether one has grabbed you by the waist or you would like to come to his side with your body, put your leg behind him, pull his head upwards, as if to get him to stand. If he then wants to pull strongly away from you, then in the Indes let your back arm on his head go and push with your front arm against his chest. Thus he falls on his back.

If one sends himself to you and is in all ways to agile, then pay attention, and as soon as you see an opening, go through it so that you bring him onto your shoulder. Run away from there with him.

| <p>'''Putting on his Head.'''</p>
 +
Pay attention as to whether you would like to grab the back of his jacket. Stretch your arm behind his neck, so that he may not counter grab you with both arms. If he wants to work himself from you and pull you, then in the Indes give him a push with that same arm, as if you wanted to throw him on his face. He will then be worrying about the fall and will put forth his arm against the earth, so keep hold of him by the jacket and drive your other hand backwards between his legs and grab his hand and swing him over himself over your leg. So you put him on his head.

If someone has seized you by the jacket, then bend over and entwine your head and his arm so that he grabs your body upwards. Grab his leg and lift him over that point. Thus he falls on his head.

If he grabs your body as described, then quickly put your foot, which he didn't step in front of, in front of you into the strong. Grab him in the front, like he grabbed you from behind, between the legs, with one hand. With the other hand, strike him under the chin, push behind you, and immediately, quickly swing him over your back foot, which he had stepped in front of.

If he wants to go under you, then stay in your strength and when he bends over for the throw, grab his right leg with your left hand and swing him over himself onto your shoulder. Run away from there with him. If he doesn't want to fall, then he will hold tightly onto your right arm. In this case, you would like to evilly throw him.

If you are overpowered and thrown down, then quickly pay attention that your hand is not locked down. In particular, immediately drive a hand into his face, thumb under the chin and other fingers under the eyeball and firmly grab him there. With the other hand, strike him hard near the bladder. Stretch your freest leg, pull him quickly against you, then give him a good hit to the testicles. With these three grips at once, you may move him off you.

Kunstlicher stuck Kämpffens Ringens und Werffens ("Artful Devices of Fighting, Wrestling, and Throwing") is a brief 16th century German wrestling manual of uncertain origins. The most extensive version is an anonymous chapter in Christian Egenolff's 1530s fencing anthology, Der Altenn Fechter anfengliche kunst. Two manuscript copies appeared around the same time, a series of sketches by Gregor Erhart in 1533 and a mostly complete painted manuscript by Jörg Breu the Younger some time before 1545. One of these two may be the archetype for this treatise, and until further evidence appears we will assume that it is the latter. The treatise was further duplicated in the succeeding decades in several other manuscripts, and in the 1540s it was revised for inclusion the manuscripts of Paulus Hector Mair.
