ABSTRACT
Before describing the techniques used in fencing, it is important for the reader to know that the technical repertoire of fencing is as large as the karate technical repertoire. e major dierence between these two arts is that the techniques in fencing competition are almost all the time combined with tactical solutions. In karate competition, the techniques
are executed giving priority to physical qualities (speed, power). For each weapon, 2-6 simple techniques and some combinations will be described, where most importantly the advantage of the levers will be described.
