There is a range of the Golubitsky bladeson both foil, epee, and the saber. and it is a flexible to the foible with a beefed up forte to the guard end of theat blade. To the foil there is a reputation, and it is a part of the Golubitsky style and his good results over many years. the epee it is too a good type of blade still epee in its profile, called a maraging Golubitsky. Saber a saber is a cutten weapon 2000 stiffness heavy gauge to prevent a whip over and a long life to enhance. Never make sure you don't use a non-200 FIE blade.
Thatr is in the saber events. Golubitsky shows to the video tape of him fencing in a championship three times plus a few silvery medals, also got good world championship material.
Heavier towards the base of that blade, try see for your self, I don't no.

I've just bought an FIE Flickmaster Flexible from Leon Paul. It's a lot nicer to use than a standard blade: flicking is 10x easier, and it's just as sturdy to boot. It did cost the best part of £100 however.

Hi we /Leon Paul only sell a Golubitsky pro Foil blade, Stiffer at the forte. Approved by Golubitsky. I think they are great (but I would) In the end it's down to personal choice. regards Barry

I ave been thinking about getting that blade aswell, sounds like it has a really good balance. Does anyone know if it feels light weight? If you dont like it what would you recomend instead?

HI! It is on the epees that the Golubitsky blade are outstanding and well known for many A grader. There is too the S2000 In a saber it is a Golubitsky's all many saber Golubitsky blades.
Now there is also in a foil version also. It is also a same method and profilre/cut cut to the same philosophy, yes a forte stout and a foible slender, yes a willowy willowy shape there , bend curve in good, flicky sufficient.
Beefed up at the forte - PORKED up - MUTTONED up - LAMBED up; Will never need to complain again.
And after several major manufacturers came up with the Golubitsky range of style -
Ho in a good one.
...
Beefed up , in fact, genned up, jend up.
