Editorial Review :
From first lesson to first competitions - a good beginner's mask that is also good for all levels of domestic USFA competitions in foil and epee, and is a solid practice mask for ( non-electric) saber with a noise-reducing vinyl head band. Available in 5 sizes, adjustable for custom fit. Outside: strong (passes 12kg punch test) with insulated mesh; pliable, felt-filled sewn-in bib (largest allowable) that lays close to the jacket, protecting the neck, unlike stiff bibs that curl up dangerously around the edges. Inside: lined for comfort with non-irritating fabric; hygienic because lining is cleanable; fitted for extra safety with forehead restraint to prevent mask from jamming against nose in a jarring contact and detachable elastic strap holds the bottom of the head close, just as tab holds in the top. The least expensive multi-featured mask available and a good one, too. Lining and bib colors vary.

Editorial Review :
If price is your major concern, this is the foil: large hexagonal nut for balance; best feel; felt thumb pad to cushion against hand jamming; sturdy aluminum guard for extra rigidity; either practice or dummy electric blade with tip. The limitation of this low cost foil is its Chinese blade, which over time can bend toward the end and make it harder to direct to target. A serviceable foil for beginners. Colors vary.

Great Sword
I ordered this for a scene with stage combat. It's very sturdy (you hit them pretty hard in combat) and light weight, I'm considering taking some fencing classes now that I have a foil. So just wanted people to know that this sword is great for stage combat as well, only giving it 4 instead of 5 because it came late.

still in great shape 5 months later
i practice 5-10 hours a week with this thing, and have no complaints. i've destroyed a couple of targets with it, but it's still going strong.

Editorial Review :
A good beginner's glove, suitable for practice or electrical fencing, with many quality features. Leather or Synthetic suede palm and fingers for good hand protection and blade feel. The back of the hand and cuff is made of polyester and is pleasantly padded to cushion against the occasional thwack of opponent's blade; the glove also boasts a double layer of leather over thumb, forefinger and lower part of the palm where gloves get the most wear. Velcro closure on the cuff allows for custom fit over jacket sleeve and secure pathway for body cord. A fine value, perfect for the first time fencer. Sold individually. Colors vary.
Customer Review :
Shipped quickly
The foil and glove ordered shipped quickly and seemed (to my unexperienced eye) to be great. My son was very pleased and is excited to start using them.

Great tool
I needed a precision driver set to carry around with me at work and this is perfect. Lightweight, compact and sturdy with a rotating head and good grip making it easy to remove stubborn screws. The only flaw, and why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5, is that it only has storage for 3 bits so I had to remove the cartridge so I could stash all 4 bits in the handle. Not a problem to do, as it just pulls out, but a silly design never-the-less.

Great little screwdriver for the IT dude.
Hardened steel bits keeps a grip, less likely to strip. That little red "bob" on the end rotates. Doesn't sound like much, unless you can only get one hand in the cabinet. Apply a little pressure, turn screw with one hand. Brilliant.
It's one of the few tools I'd really say, I'd hate to lose. All the bits you normally use in one little package. And it's not some foreign made "looks and feels" like "aluminum foil" brand. It's solid, yet small.
Great little screwdriver.

End all mini screwdriver
I purchased both this HD74501 AND the Torx version 74502 and I have to say I have been thoroughly impressed. Being in IT for over 10 years now I have gone through so many mini screwdriver sets its not even funny. This one is by FAR the best. The Phillips end does not strip away as found with most cheap sets. The design is very comfortable and easy to keep steady. The back palm rest lets you keep pressure while still turning the driver. I use the torx ends for scsi drives, cell phones etc.. I am VERY protective over lending these guys out :]. They are fairly priced at major retailers near you. I just wish they had an hex counterpart to them.

Excellent Kit!
I needed something like this to carry around in my purse because I'm always needing something like this either at home or work or out and about. After researching several brands, I decided on this Husky. I've already used it many times and its great. Very hand-friendly, love all the different bits (which was a big factor in my purchasing this) and its well built and strong. I've had to put some hard torque on some of these bits and they held up perfectly. Great product. Would highly recommend.

Questions & Answers
Question : How to get some meat on me? lol?
im fairly skinny, not at all over weight. trying to get my body into shape, im pretty fit already but its just mainly because i have hardly any fat on me atm, so its pretty much just muscel, however small it may be =P. i do fencing and other sports so working out is not a problem but i have a very high metabolism so i cant seem to put on any fat which i can later burn off. any1 got any tips?
Answer:
What you need to do is be eating ALL THE TIME. Eat healthy foods too, especially when you're not even hungry. But at the same time you must do resistance training and cardio. Also, you can try a protein shake or calorie gainer shake.

Question : What are cool sports I should try?
I want to try something new, something unique. I want to try fencing but I want to know what other cool sports I can take lessons on.No football, baseball, basketball, volleyball, dancing.
Answer:
Personally i think hockey is the best. Inline hockey is cheaper than ice hockey and is less competitive, but you can still join traveling teams when you get good. Try track and field that's a unique sport too. Also there are the following:Golf WrestlingBMXCross-country

Question : How can I help my sister with her fast metabolism?
My little sister has an EXTREMELY FAST METABOLISM (and shes a vegitarian). She is 13 and weighs 90 lbs and is 5' 2". She is totally healthy and is the star of her middle school track team. :) She does swimming, fencing and many other sports and excells at them all, and still people taunt her for being skinny. She has high self confidence but still wishes people would stop talking about her weight.
Answer:
90 pounds is very slim but it's not all that abnormal for 5'2" girl who runs track. She should accept herself for who she is but if she wants to gain weight, I know some people that drink "Ensure". She could also focus on adding good fats and proteins like peanut butter.

Question : What are some uncommon sports that i can take?
I want to play a sport that not a lot of people play. Like volleyball.... everyone plays volleyball. I think its an awesome sport but i want to be a little more diverse than that. Fencing is a REALLY cool sport and that's a good idea but yeah! I just want to know some other sports! Thanks!Oh Yeah! I Live in SC so... ya... like no cold sports are possible. like no snow boarding.
Answer:
Well unusual sports have a certain dependency on where you live. If you live in the northern part of the US or in Canada or Scandinavia you might play knurling. It's not really an unusual sport in those areas but if you're in say Florida it is unknown. Jai Alai (an old Mayan/Aztec game) is popular in Florida, but outside of there say Nebraska...it would be very unusual.

Question : Revising list of summer olympic sports?
Does anyone else agree with me when I say that the following "sports" (more so activities), should be removed from the Olympic games?ArcheryBadmintonCanoe/kayakEquestrianFootballFencingHandballSailingShootingTable tennisIn my opinion, they are more activities than anything else and aren't anywhere near as athletic as other sports. I myself just missed going to the Olympic games this year for swimming, and this is just my view. Please support your answer!!
Answer:
of all the sports listed above, I want the sport equestrian to be removed as Olympic sports simply because there is no activity on the part of the athlete. Its the horse who is doing all the stenious activities. another reason is that only a few countries mostly European countries and almost no African country participate in this sport.

Question : Does doing Fencing look good on a college application?
I have been doing Fencing for four years but as a Junior, I think I want to quit it as I am getting tired of it. Does it look good to do Fencing in the ffirst place, as compared to other sports. Would it look bad to quit in the middle of high school, but yet then not quit and then tell them that I do not have interest in participating in College Fencing. What is my best option, college-wise?
Answer:
Any sport looks good. 4 years of fencing would be totally cool and a great enhancement to your application.However, 4 years of a specific modern language, a great SAT score, and some ECs that are relevant to your proposed major are even greater enhancements.

Answer:
