Épeé

The Épeé has a thick heavy blade with a triangular cross section and a groove in the center. The guard is a large curved dome shape. The epee is a point weapon can use the entire body as target area. An Épeé fencer needs to protect every part of their body at all times. One touch may last a long time, while the fencers simply move back and forth analyzing each other, as it is easier to get hit because of the total target area.
