Check out the new Zivkovic Modern Fencing Equipment website at http://www.zivkovic.com.

We've redesigned it for greater ease of use, adding/updating all pictures and dropping in new items. Check it out when you've got some time!

Its looks allright, but I do have one critique. In the handle section, it doesn't allow you to select different sizes, or give you a good idea with most of them wether they'd work for people who want small, medium, large, extra large etc grips.

Well, I think it looks pretty good. It has one of the more intuitive navigation interfaces that I've seen on a fencing merchant's website, which is probably the most important component.

My one complaint would be selection of merchandice. It does seem a bit limited (although I feel lik they are going for more of a specialty store), but while they have a wealth of unusaul pistol grips, they do not have some of the more commonly used ones. I would think you would offer a german, visconti, or belgium before offering the french grip.

Rolls.

Hi,

Thanks for your input requesting help with the handles. We're working on creating a chart to direct fencers to the grip that would best suit them based on weapon, hand size, and other factors. Hopefully we'll have that information up there soon, as it is definitely useful.

As for the request for Viscontis and so forth, you should know that Zivkovic Modern Fencing is not your average shop. For example, we don't carry Chinese or Russian equipment because it's simply not up there on the quality scale.

Similary, we have moved away from "traditional" grips because of their antiquated design. Instead, we designed our own range of orthopedic handles, which have been on the market for years. We made these designs so that over the long term your hand/wrist won't get hurt. We may soon be offering leftover "traditional" grips (Visconti and such) in our Specials section for steep discounts. Keep checking the page.

You may also try our grips in Cleveland at the JO's and in Massachusetts (Brandeis University) for the NCAA's.

When are the NCAA's at Brandeis?
