    Hi...I'm ben, and I'm a sabre fencer.

    Anyone else? Admitting it's the first step people..
    Seriously tho, there're alot of sabre fencers on the board. At least it seems theres a number of sabrists on this board in relation to the foil and epeeists, proportionate to the number of sabre fencers in the fencing world in general.
    Oiuyt is a sabre fencer, as is Peach. Those are all I can think of off the top of my head that are regulars here, but if you see sabrepoet posting, he is also.

    I do sabre, but I could quit any time I like....

    I used to do only sabre, but I've moved onto epee as there is more opposition at my club for epee, also I'm not as fast as I used to be :-)

    And I am yet ANOTHER aspiring saber-ist...saber-er? whatever you wish to call it...I think that you would be quite surprised to find how many people sabre (in the verb sense ;-)

    We're here.

    There's a fair amount of them. Check out the threads which specifically relate to sabre topics.

    Sabre?

    The name just sounds cool. That's why it's my primary. (And I 'm a lefty too!)

    Waugh...I felt a disturbance in the Force...someone thought there was a dearth of sabre fencers about...had to make a quick
    "type-by" to dispell that impression...

    I fence all three weapons -- but I suck the most at epee. I teach sabre at SwordPlay in Burbank...and get spanked by Inquartata at competitions!

    Hi Paul!!
    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?)"

    FP,

    By now you'd have noticed, if you had checked my profile, that I am a sabreur. I've been a sabreur since 1970 and a foilist since 1965.

    Nowadays, I only do foil and epee in tournaments when I feel like it.

    Yes, i suck the most in epee, too.


    My avatars been showing a sabreur, oops the last one, the blue one showed two sabreures.

    PK

    Let me guess, pkt. That avatar is Damien Touya, right? Even with the mask on and no identifying marks, I'm pretty sure it's him. He has a distinctive en garde.
