An epee will typically have a broader, deeper bell guard around the grip than a foil, which has a much smaller guard.

What is a foil in fencing?
It's just like fencing epee, except you can't hit them on the toe. The target is limited to the torso area plus part of the neck and the groin. The arms, hands, head, and legs are not valid targets. Also, there is right of way. Right of way is the priority of an attack. For example, Fencer A attacks and Fencer B makes a parry-riposte and then Fencer A immediately starts a new attack and hits on target. Fencer B's riposte also arrives on target. Fencer B gets a point. So to fence foil, you just have to always remember to parry your opponents attack.
