February
Welcome to our new feature: "Did You Know?" Each month we will have a factoid about fencing.
Did You Know?:
Epees should have a slight downward curve to the blade. However, they can't be bent too far. Here is the rule:
Any curve of the blade must be uniform and the maximum bend must in any case be less than 1 cm; it is only permitted in the vertical plane and must be near the centre of the blade. The curve of the blade must be measured as follows: i) the blade is placed on a flat surface so that the curve is uppermost; ii) the maximum distance between the flat surface and the blade is measured: this distance is deemed to be the curve of the blade.
