    Best BF Foil Vendor?

    Which (reliable, American) ONLINE vendor carries the highest quality/consistent bf whites? I heard that there seems to be a pecking order when vendors order from the factory in France, so I'd like to know who carries the best bfs.

    Thanks!

    Triplette Competition Arms

    If you are looking for the top BF vendor I'd say Triplette. Their prices are much better and they are good people.

    There is no pecking order that is a myth as far as I know we buy probably the second most of any vendor in the world and I really see no evidence of there being any pecking order.

    That said batches do vary and blades within batches vary.

    Go for your regular supplier or wherever you can get them cheapest.

    And go hand pick them if you can... The blades can be really inconsistant.
