Competition Foils
The fencing foils we have on site are all
certified "fully functional" ie. they are
manufactured where the hilt and blade components
together are manufactured to 'battle ready"
standards. They are true historical replicas. The
foils we stock are "blunted" ie. not sharpened.
They are fine for practice.
For all official FIE ( Federation Internationale
d'Escrime ) competitions , and most other high
level competitions , FIE-certified blades that
have the FIE logo stamped at the base of the
blade, along with the code letters for the forge
that produced the blade (caveat emptor: some
disreputable forges have been known to falsify
these marks) are mandatory. The factory does not
produce FIE blades , as it emphasizes production
on true historical replica blades rather than
modern swords or electric swords - used in
competition for scoring.
So if you are looking for a FIE certified or
electric practice sword , you have to go to the
sites that deal with this type of item.
