Best Answer

Out of the three weapons used in Fencing, the ease of use for each will mostly depend on the athlete. If one is tall and athletic, Epee may come easier than Saber, which requires more movement and short-term stamina to perform well.

What is a training sword called in fencing?

The weapon used for training in the fencing duel era was called the foil (fleur). It is still used as one of the 3 weapons for fencing today, although it has never historically been a real weapon used for combat. There isn't a training sword in fencing. Originally the foil (see above) before the sport fencing - like we know it now - exsisted. Now you choose a weapon (like the foil) and train with that. So in fencing there is no training sword.
