Not only are these Collectible Fencing Foils Beautifully crafted but they are Battle Ready.
Some History:
Under Louis XIV in France, a change in fashion led to a new kind of sword. The rapier simply didn't go well with brocaded jackets, breeches, and silk stockings, so French courtiers began wearing a shorter sword. The court sword, as it was known, turned out to be an excellent weapon for fencing because it was both lighter and stronger than the rapier, so it could be used for defense as well as offense. As a result, the modern one-handed fencing technique developed, with the left hand and arm used primarily for balance.
A special version of the court sword, the foil, was developed for practice. Hence the Fencing Foil arrives!
