The Fetchbuch, also known as "fight manuals", gave medieval students the chance to learn techniques, and were useful aids to the weapon masters of old. This sword was used commonly amoung the old fighting schools, as depicted in many historical fighting manuals, including the Codex Wallerstein.
The classic widened ricasso is distinctive to the Fetchbuch battle ready swords, and were created to support the strength near the tang. These swords had a thick, dull blade for safe practice, making it a useful, common companion to any student learning longsword combat.
