    Yes, but can you handle a blade?

    Could you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intriguing.

    Does a fencing foil count as a "blade"? It has no cutting edge, thus no blade as such.

    Im impressed...you both know your stuff! However a rapier (which is what is in Muskateer Picard's build list) is generally (but not limited to) a thrusting sword hence it is closer to a foil than a sabre.

    A rapier is both a piercing and slashing weapon (but primarily piercing).

    A saber is both piercing and slashing (but primarily slashing).

    A foil is just a piercing weapon.

    I think it was "King Ralph" or some such bad movie where they asked if he had ever fenced before and he replied only a few watches when I was younger.
