    What fencing magazines are out there?

    Besides American Fencing, what other fencing-related publications exist?

    Thanks.

    Edit: English language ones in particular, thank you!

    The one that first springs to mind of of course Escrime.

    The SwFF used to publish a really good magazine a couple of years ago. It was printed on very good quality paper and had some very interesting articles. It was distributed four (I think) times a year to everyone holding a national license.
    Fencing is my only PvP.

    The British Fencing Association publishes The Sword over on these fair shores, but I've not seen a fencing-dedicated magazine here aside from that. Martial arts rags like Combat occasionally mention it, but rarely.

    There's always N.E.'s Fencers' Quarterly Magazine for a different perspective:

    There is this brand new one too, but unfortunately for American readers it is only in French:

    You can also download PDFs of Escrime from the FIE site (www.fie.ch) for free.

    A fencing-related publication in which you're probably not interested.
