Testimonials

“In my opinion the false ricasso manufactured by Twin Arms Fencing is an excellent alternative for those unable to obtain foil blades of Italian architecture.  Fused to its arches and crossbar, the unit affords a stable grip.  When properly assembled, there is no wobbling or rolling of the blade. It is sturdy, handles well, and comes in both a standard size, and a slightly larger one to accommodate fencers with uncommonly large hands.  Its crossbar, somewhat larger in diameter than the norm, is more comfortable to the middle finger.  Although the ricasso portion of the unit is slightly thicker than the ricasso of an authentic Italian blade, the difference is insignificant with respect to handling and sensitivity of touch.”

“I'm very much looking forward to the weapon. I have one of your foils already, a standard polished italian foil, and I've been very impressed with the quality. You make beautiful weapons. Thank you for such a quality product at such reasonable prices. I'll be looking to buy from you again when I need another foil and will definitely be recommending you to anyone who has need of a quality practice or electric italian.”
