The Dagger/Counter Dagger Concepts of Joachim Meyer

This is a training packet for Joachim Meyer's Dagger and Counter Dagger techniques found in his 1570 treatise, Grundiliche Beschreibung der Kunst des Fechten (Fundamental Descriptions of the Art of Fencing). Colonel Dwicght C. McLemore was a leader in the martial arts community in deconstructing the mechanics of techniques of various combat systems and creating more clear and functional training packets for students. This work was finished long before he passed, but was given to the editor the year it was completed, as the Colonel chose to retire from teaching martial arts that year. His passing in 2021 prompted the editor to compile his pages of this manuscript and bring them to the community he served for so many years.
