While Christian Tobler's book is quite comprehensive and of excellent general quality, modern understanding of these Medieval techniques continues to improve with study. This makes the book an excellent resource, but by no means an object of strict adherence. As such, it's important to question techniques that don't seem to work, or those that don't seem practical. All the same, the book's combination of clarity in text and comprehensive visual explanation of physical techniques makes it a valued asset to any student of German Medieval swordsmanship.
 
See ''[[Blossfechten (Literature)|Blossfechten]]''<ref>As seen above, however, the Bloßfechten forms only one (albeit considerable) part of the martial art.</ref> for further explanation of the origins and techniques of the martial art presented. The 2009 documentary ''[[Reclaiming the Blade (Film)|Reclaiming the Blade]]'' devotes a considerable amount of time to modern efforts to reconstruct European Medieval swordsmanship, wherein the German manuals are most influential.
