After the Tokyo Olympics, the FIE require that fencers use blades made from the higher specification Maraging steel. This is to improve safety and bring sabre in line with Foil and Epee.

After a full year of design and development, we have created the Apex blade. We consulted with fencers from Russia, France, Italy, the UK and more to produce a blade that lasts longer, is safer and performs better and more consistently than any existing blade.

To make this happen, we have gone back to first principles and started by analysing the blades top fencers prefer to use, and then 3d modelling them to analyse what made them so good. We have then developed a complete new production line with two new forges, and custom made computer controlled mills to make the finished product possible.

As always, we would love to hear from you! Leave us a comment!
