Is anyone selling a practice foil?

First, maraging steel is forged in a way that yields a stronger blade -- the common quote is that they last 4 to 5 times longer than non-maraging blades.

Second, the crystal structure of the steel is such that when they do break, they break with a flat end rather than a jagged one. Blunter. Safer.

I made the wholesale switch to only FIE (i.e., maraging) blades after a close call. I consider it a courtesy to my opponent, but then hey, that's just me.

Oh, and that's some screen name. What kind of keyboard is that?

Thanks for the info.. Good snag... it was posted for about 1 minute before I realized I should have that in the "Armory" section.. I went to move it, and my gold / blue quesiton had already been answered...

Thanks for answering the other parts!
