This fechtbuch is a woodcut published sometime between 1529 and 1531 by Christian Egenolph, the Messer portion of the book is a variant of a Messer treatise written in 1478 by Hans Lecküchner.

Note: Magister Andreas' longsword-messer terminology guide is a valuable study aid to longsword students investigating the Messer. This essay was included in the multi-master Hans von Speyer fechtbuch of 1491.
