Épée: Description, Dueling & Sport

The épée (/ˈɛpeɪ, ˈeɪ-/, French: ; lit. 'sword'), also rendered as epee in English, is the largest and heaviest of the three weapons used in the sport of fencing. The modern épée derives from the 19th-century épée de combat, a weapon which itself derives from the French small sword.
