Budget practice epee blade

Summary: Complete junk.July 19th, 2003
These are some of the worse blades sold in the US that I have ever seen. Even the web site of the vendor will tell you that they are junk.
The fit and finish is horrible. There are many blade deformities and the overall finish itself is very poor. The blade will flex, but the one I have will flex close to the tang and therefore is useless for an epee flick in all but the most bizarre situations.
The one I got was from a super sale. It was a complete weapon for 15 dollars, and if it had not come with a guard and a grip (what I actually needed at the time) then I would fell that I paid too much!
This is not the blade to buy. Beg, borrow, or search your couch cushions until you have enough extra money to get a better blade.
