Martial arts for the man-at-arms

I'm making templates for a world at early TL3 (although, inexplicably, there's full plate around*). But the rest of the world is at early TL3. Promise.

Anyway, there are knights there, and they sometimes lose their weapons on the battlefield. So, what unarmed martial art should these knights (and mercenaries and maybe even experienced militiamen) learn to supplement their swords and maces?
