    Scaramouche. Best FENCING movie. Not theatrical type sword fight, genuine FENCING as fencing in a salle, etc. One-two, double', etc.

    i like

    that: "There is nothing new except what is forgotten."

    reminds me of a more modern statement: "he's forgotten more than I know."

    I've always been a big fan of the "I see you're extended! Let me step forward and skewer myself" technique.

    Nothing beats a perfectly timed and executed hit direct (hand or body, I am not fussy)!
    Simple clear effective!
    A close second is a perfect 1-2 or feint-double to the hand.

    When I am feeling showy, then a prise-de-fer flick to the wrist or a flick to the back/shoulder...

    A balestra with a cut to the head..

    or, in retreat, a little cut to the manchet, which my opponent never felt...

    Stab to the mask with the point- In sabre.

    Its one of the most annoying moves because
    A) Its hard to see the blade.
    B) They dont expect the point
    C) You have a chance to knock their mask off- this makes them go "huh? what happened?"
