John - Great picture! (unitard)

Craig - Thanks for the info about Uhlmann/FWF. I will never understand why decent bodycords are so hard to make...

I pointed out the issue with the old website and this to the guys running the booth at the Houston NAC.

I hope their other vintages of mask mesh are as strong, there's been a lot of reports of TCA club masks failing punch sooner than contemporaries on here.

Since maraging does not necessarily mean FIE (nor does FIE necesaarily mean maraging), I'm wondering what these blades are. Simply maraging blades from Vniti that weren't homogulated/stamped? Blades from runs that couldn't be homogulated/stamped?


btw, it's good to see on the new site that while the TCA masks are described as strong and the mesh as "FIE rated", it also includes the all caps note that "TCA IS NOT SELLING THIS MASK AS AN FIE MASK"

The Vniti Blades are FIE and Maraging I will point it out to the owners and get it corrected. Thank you for pointing it out. If you see anything else let me know.

I visited the site for the first time in quite a while and was plesantly surprised. A few pictures are missing, but the ones that are up look nice, and I'm pleased that you can view enlarged images. However, I must confess the animated fencer at the top kinda makes me giggle a little.
