Looking for a lighter, child-friendly guard? The Imex kid's guard is designed specifically for young fencers. Its diameter and depth have been reduced compared to a standard guard, making it lighter and easier to grip, even with less strength.
While compatible with all blade lengths, it does require a child-sized handle for a proper fit. We recommend it for use with sizes 2 and 0 blades.

Please note: actual guard weight and dimensions may vary.
Guards are made from different materials. Some are more durable, while others are lighter.
Choosing a more durable material means your guard will last longer. On the other hand, opting for a lighter guard can help reduce hand fatigue.
It is also important to note that for foil and epee, you should consider the weight of your blade when selecting a guard. You don’t want your blade to be significantly heavier than your guard and grip, as this will make your weapon unbalanced, leading to increased hand fatigue and potential injuries.
