    Or you could just put tape along the end of them,and save yourself some cash...

    if you're really strapped for $0.25 for an end cap... you've picked the wrong hobby... Fencing is expensive and we all know it.

If you're in the Northeast, you've probably met him. If not, he might be willing to ship it.

    They come in all sorts of pretty colors too... even leopard
    Actually, that's bobcat. Also, he's using more heavy-duty zippers now.

    This is my bag and I have had it for 4 or 5 months now and it works great. The bag is big and fits every piece of fencing equipment I own.
    I have the same bag in black/red and it rules. So far I've got 2 sabres, a foil, my entire uniform, practice mask, electric mask, lame, etc... the outside pockets hold all the cables/gloves/miscellaneous stuff, my keys/wallet/phone and a bottle of gatorade with no problem.

    Too bad the damn thing weighs a ton with all that stuff in it.

    An end cap would be better...it'd round off the end...taping the ends may not soften the edges enough.
    Need fencing equipment? See me at H.O.M. Fencing Supply

    Going to your first tournament? Read "Choose yer weapon, Laddie (or: Dude, where's my foil?)"
