The highest-scoring fencing bout that fencers fence to is a Direct Elimination bout, which goes to 15.
The fencers will not typically say anything, but the director will order them to come "En Guarde", say "Ready" as an inquiry, and then give the command to "Fence".
It depends on your fencing style. Pistol grip will seem more comfortable to most fencers, especially beginners. It offers more precise movements, better point control, more powerful parries, and a better range of arm movements. Most fencers prefer the pistol grip. For french grip, which suits classical fencers, the advantage is the ability to pommel, or hold the weapon from the back of the grip. While this takes away control and power, it provides the fencer with a few extra inches of reach, which can be crucial sometimes. Overall, pistol grips are generally more suitable for foil fencers and some epee fencers, but tall, defensive epee fencers are good with the french grip. Also, it's much harder to train and fence with a french grip. It takes more practice and skill to use one effectively.

Almost anyone can fence -- even those who are physically disabled can frequently fence through wheelchair fencing. However, to actually master the sport takes thousands upon thousands of hours of practice, and Olympic fencers have typically trained for effectively their whole lives. Like almost anything else, fencing can be done poorly with little effort. However, to be great at it requires tremendous dedication and effort.
Of course you can. Some of the most brilliant fencers are left handed; many believe that lefties have an advantage, due to many fencers having not as much experience fencing with a lefty and the different techniques that lefties may try on them.
There is no specific process that fencers use but their are some basic things they do to maintain them. They clean them after use and oil them with a light oil to keep them from getting rusty. They also store them in a dry place to avoid rust.
