英格蘭長劍術

使用雙手長劍的技術，一直以來殘存的史料大多數都是詳細地介紹了關於德式長劍術流派（英語：German school of fencing）和意大利式長劍術流派（英語：Italian school of swordsmanship），然而，還有一個較細小的英式流派有自己的劍術(例如：使用半劍（英語：Half-sword）的劍術)。^[1] 英式流派技術的主體是使用英格蘭長劍(English Longsword)並且應用留存到現代的三篇中世紀的英格蘭手稿包括: Ledall卷軸，Man yt Wol ("The Man that Will")/Harley手抄本) ^[2]^[3] 與Cotton Titus手抄本（英語：List of manuscripts in the Cotton library）^[4]^[5]

源頭

三個記載主要英式長劍術源頭的手稿並沒有廣泛流傳。沒有任何一個源流被細察過，然而，其中的一些劍術手稿可以在博物館中見到，例如，在大英圖書館閱覽室可以看到Ledall卷軸。^[6] 英式長劍術起源的時間範圍從1450年Harleian手抄本起到Ledall卷軸的1600年代上半葉。^[4]^[6]

與德式長劍術比較

最明顯的比較是殘存的英式長劍術手稿數量很少。雖然有很多意大利式和相對眾多的德式手稿，但英式流派只有三篇著作流傳後世。此外，英式長劍術手稿的記載內容只有文本沒有插圖，使得英式各型劍招更難理解。最具挑戰性的因素是，手稿基本上沒有被細心察看過。儘管如此，在英國和澳洲仍有一些專門研究HEMA史實歐洲武術的修習者如: Stoccata School of defence等組織致力於研究英式長劍術的招式。^[7]
