Hello, I'm Mr. Sabre. What's your name?The SabreLook! Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's just a sabre.

The saber is the thinnest of the blades, and unfortunately, this web page author has had little experience with them. The sabre's target area is anywhere above the waist, the arms, and the hands, except below the knuckles. Also, with the sabre, unlike the foil and épée, a touché (point) can be scored by touching any part of the blade to the target area of the opponent.
