    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.

    Agreed, everywhere is target and no right of way!! Nice to know there is another fencer on these forums! Never have been really interested in the history till this and i just assumed 😲 thank you for the new knowledge!!

    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.
