    These are horrible masks. We had a few masks like this in the cupboard at the club and threw them out. When I have been forced to wear one [emphasis on the forced] they irritated my chin somewhat. The padding is covered in a plastic-like material.

    As you say, "Yuk!"

    It needs to be buried.

    You know, I hate to say it, but I've fenced in worse. The old snap on bibs always instill great confidence, especially the ones that are so short they don't even cover your collar.

    But I second that. YUK!

    there should be some kind of burning ritual for a mask like that.
    Fencing will always be a "for love of the game" sport.

    I need a good arse kicking to get better, faster!

    It's just a little joke from the UK board. I cited one of my hobbies as world domination and it stuck.

    It doesnt need to be buried, it needs to be burned! Seriously, is that mask lined with Bullsh1t!

    ha ha ha ha that mask is sick man.

    "The spots you can see in the photo are mould. This mask is safe to use."

    So according to the seller, mold in a mask won't affect my lungs; in fact mold makes no difference. It's perfectly fine to breath in mould.

    maybe it could be put on a little miniature longship, sent out to sea, and burned? That or just buried with a lot of lime to prevent the plague.
    It's not easy making this look easy.
