STM - Pro+ FIE Foil Blade with Allstar Point

Blade Length

A shorter blade will be lighter and better balanced, but a longer blade will provide better reach. 

Some clubs and provincial federations require shorter blades for different age groups. For club requirements, please ask your coach. For rules enforced in tournaments, you can refer to our article on Rules for Equipment.

Blades lengths are identified by a number between 0 and 5. The standard size for teenagers and adults is a size 5 blade. As a general rule of thumb, starting from the length of a standard size 5 blade, every time you go down one size, one inch is subtracted from the length of the blade. For example, a size 2 blade is approximately three inches shorter than a size 5 blade.

Allstar parts all the way

All of our blades are supplied with Allstar points and wires as standard. Made in Germany and used by champions all over the world, we are convinced that these are the best out there.

Installation and maintenance

If you are unsure of how to install this blade, please refer to your coach or club armorer.

Parts of the point will eventually need to be serviced or replaced. Replacement Allstar parts can be found in the Foil Points section section.

Please refer to our Maintenance of Fencing Weapons post to learn more on how to properly care for your blades and weapons.
