Dear Community,

I am currently looking for a smith, preferrably euro-based, able to make triangular blades.
I'd apreciate any recommendation or hint.

Regards,

Alex B.

Hello Alexander,

A few more details might help when using the term 'triangular blade' are you looking for a more modern sport epee style blade, or a more historical smallsword or colichemarde blade ? Even some medieval estocs had triangular blades.

There are some very talented smiths in the UK , though triangular blades are among the most difficult to forge and are certainly not in widespread use except in the sport fencing arena with mass produced epee blades.

Here are three gentlemen I would recommend contacting, assuming your requested blade is historical in nature :

Hope this helps

Thank you very much,

Yes, indeed, it's smallsword blades.
I was/am wondering if there might be a source of decent yet affordable blades, if one needs several.
