FIE- Complete Electric foil with pistol grip

Agree completely with MyraTrue on all points. For me, once this weapon had a bit of use, it "settled in" to being stiff in the Forte with moderate flexibility at the tip. It takes a curve with gratifying perfection. It's not a lightweight blade, but I found, suprisingly, that it was significantly lighter than the Non-FIE version using the Uhlmann "ultra" blade. It was my assumption that Maraging FIE blades were always a bit heavier than their non-FIE counterparts. Not so in this case. It is Not whippy like a Paul Etoile bladed practice weapon, and has predictable point movement and great balance... I find myself using it for practice rather than another weapon identical in every way except for the Uhlmann "ultra blade" that I had bought specifically for practicing...



I also have the Maraging "BF Blue" FIE version of this weapon and I assume it is the same except for the blue anti-corrosion finish...



I found my confidence boosted a notch or two when fencing with this weapon. Its not inexpensive by any means, but its cheaper than defeat :)
