| Yes, they're both identical, as they're made in China. FenceWithFun uses the manufacturer that produced Uhlman/AllStar gear for a number of years now, and is producing the same quality stuff. So there are now Uhlman triplets!
As for the cuts on the two being the same/different, I can't attest to that anymore. Pre-China Allstar/Uhlman, they were easily identifiable, just laying on the table, now their standards of quality control aren't top-tier, and more and more "miscuts" are making their way to the U.S.A.
In all honesty, agasint my own likes of gear, I can really only reccomend Leon Paul right now. Edit: Ask Craig here about the store, like or dislike LP stuff, Craig is cool by me. You can ask Alex, I'm not a big giant fan of LP stuff, outside of their uncrushable epee tips. FenceWithFun's jacket is on its way to me, so I can't rightfully recomend it without having abused it myself, and I can't attest to the current crop of Uhlman stuff.
Plus, isn't Allstar more expensive, just... 'cause? Anyone have the brand new stuff that wants to yap about it? |
