    STM epee blades

    Hey there,

    I was looking for a new epee blade and I like the feel on an STM non maraging epee blade. Would their maraging blades feel similiar? Also, any help on how long the maraging ones last would be great especially when compared to the BF blades. Thanks

    Eric

    I highly dislike the STM epee blades I purchased a few months ago. Both of the blades I received had very soft spots on the top 1/3 of the blade. After about a month of usage (which for me was a tournament and 8 practices) one of the blades broke right at the soft spot. So I am expecting the other to break here shortly.

    So in all honestly I couldn't recommend STM blades.
