Parts of a Foil

Hi Loyalist Fencing Club athletes!  These are the parts of the foil that we need to remember for the yellow armband:

Remember,
Foible: the weaker, more flexible part of the blade

Forte: strong part of the blade used for defending

The pommel acts as a counter-balance for the weapon.
