New Vniti Blade

[Mr.Piccolo22]

Noodle,
Who sells the Vniti bell guard? I did some looking on websites but I cannot find them. A little help... Thanks

[prototoast]

sounds like a plan. . . As long as you give me all those FIE foil blades free of charge. . .

Deal. If I get a forge up and running, you'll get free foil blades!

yeah, thats a tricky one
bg has them but doesn't advertise they have them and on top of that they usually tell you they don't have them even if they do. "reserving" them for "special people", if you will.

i can't put my finger on who really has them at any point in time, they seem to run out so quickly. you'd need to go to a nac/nationals to find a vendor who has them out to sell. i think i saw blade with them before.

no matter how you look at it, i always have trouble finding them. they're quality. a little expensive, but they do not dent, hardly scratch (they do take some light scratches but nothing really harms the metal at all), and are almost the lightest guard you can buy (they're a little heavier than the extra light guards from whoever).

[ShadowHuntr]

so, mr. noodle, would you offically call them the "dream bell guard"?

[noodle]

no
not everyone likes lighter guards
they're more expensive than most other guards
and when they break (albeit rarely and i've never seen one break), they'll shatter

Just ordered some Vniti Epeé guards from swordmasters - they have 'em. $15.00.

[ShadowHuntr]

yes! awesome! well, fencing post has uhlmann extra light for $16 and the super awesome bell guard is cheaper!
