FREIFECHTER medieval fencing guild and our new feder model
The Freifechter guild, or the Brotherhood of Free Fencers, was a medieval German fencing guild that emerged in the 15th century. These guilds were associations of fencers and fencing masters who practiced and taught various forms of martial arts and combat skills. The term “Freifechter” translates to “free fencers” in English, indicating that these individuals were skilled fencers who were not bound to any specific master or school.
NEW FEDER MODEL
The latest design model inspired by the engravings of Meyer and Mair puts in your hands a light and fast training weapon. The pivot point is closer to the hilt, allowing for better execution of techniques like Durchwechseln or Abnehmen, while still remaining close enough to the guard that it doesn’t extend beyond the opponent’s silhouette during Winden. In cutting exercises, the light blade with its center of gravity shifted more towards the point elegantly swishes with each cut.
