One of the rapidly growing arts within historical fencing societies is that
of sabre fencing in the late 19th century Italian style, originating with fencing
masters who were employed to train mounted troops in the effective use of the
military sabre. The Milanese fencing master Guiseppe Radaelli, is credited
with starting the development of this style, while Salvatore Pecoraro introduced
changes and refinements which resulted in the technique finally adopted for
sabre at the Military Masters School in Rome.
The hilt designs developed by Radaelli and Pecoraro have been reproduced in
our fencing sabers, with stainless steel guards and wire-wrapped sharkskin-pattern
grips. The high-carbon flex-tempered steel blades closely follow the proportions
of the period and are button-tipped for safety. The blade and hilt of the “Hutton” sabre
are closer to the style of the true military sabre. The blade is somewhat shortened
and lightened, with a rounded tip for effective training. All hilts will accept
both blade styles.
