Sabre

The Sabre is descended from 19th century dueling weapons as well as from cavalry weapons. It has the most flexible blade of all with a basically flat cross section. Sabre has a large guard shaped like a rounded square and a curved knuckle gaurd that protects the hand from cutting attacks. Sabre is a cutting weapon. The edge of the blade is used to cut the target area, which is the upper torso, arms and head. Because the point is not used, it is simply folded back tightly against itself. Below is the sabre, a light weapon with a flat blade and knuckle guard. Sabre is fenced with a cutting motion and the target area is the upper body including head and arms.
