Summary: At last a perfect blade
January 22nd, 2009
In my fencing career (14 years total)
I've had many electric foils. Most them were stm blade's or the bf maraging.(or non fie blades in earlier times when they were not yet obliged for tournaments)

with all of these blades (exept for my blue bf)it was very difficult for me to do flick-hits. Since this is my favourite technique to score points, it has always been very hard for me to do so.

I just received my first flickmaster weapon yesterday and the first thing that I noticed was it's weight. It was amazingly light. After just looking at its structure and beauty I tried a couple moves and flicks. the weight and balance were just....perfect. The flex of the weapon is for me .... also perfect. It is very stable when doing thrust attacks and very...very flexible when you do a flick.

This is the first weapon that, I think, is truly worth all of it's money.
