Luis Pacheco de Narváez

Don Luis Pacheco de Narváez (1570–1640) was a Spanish writer on ''destreza'', the Spanish art of fencing.

He was a follower of Don Jerónimo Sánchez de Carranza. Some of his earlier works were compendia of Carranza's work while his later works were less derivative. He served as fencing master to King Philip IV of Spain.

Nevertheless, it is not known exactly when Pacheco met his teacher, the greatest master of Spanish fencing, Jerónimo Sanchez de Carranza. Provided by Wikipedia
