    Epee for sure.

    American Sabre.

    Longsword! No, sabre!

    Aieeee!
    Use the Shift key, people! Keyboard manufacturers everywhere are ineffably saddened when you ignore what they made just for you!

    Oh, behave!
    Sir, after careful consideration, I have come to the conclusion that your new defense system sucks.

    So, what this poll has showed us is that, as usual, sabrists are loud and brash in support of their POV.

    I like foil best, although I also fence epee, and, on rare occasions, sabre.

    As one of our club members once said:

    "Foil is more creative -- you can think of a lot more excuses why you lost."

    Foil is a toy compared to the epee.

    Epee. The only, the real, the genuine true weapon.

    All others are mere tools to help you achieve the status of epee fencer.
    • Epee is the Louis Vuitton bag of fencing: only the best can get it, and the rest of the masses must content themselves with cheap knockoffs (sabre, foil)
    • To not recognize the power of the French grip is to be in denial

    Foil - more fun
    Epee - fun
    Sabre - to many hackin' high school kids...
