There are 3 types of Fencing swords:
Epee
Foil
Sabre
The target area of epee is the whole body. You hit with the tip of the blade.
For foil, only the torso is target area, and you also get a touch with the blade's tip. Sabre is only the upper body. You use the side of the blade, but you can also use the tip.
There are three types of weapons in fencing; foil, epee, and saber
The parts are different from one another in each weapon, but all have the same general layout.
The grip: the "handle" where the fencer holds the weapon. There are MANY different types of grips.
The bell-guard: The metal area right above the handle.
The blade: the actual blade of the weapon. However, it is not sharp
The tip: The tip is the part that actually stabs the opponent. It can either be electric (so it creates a circuit and a light goes off) or a rubber tip (for a practice weapon).

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.
