Allstar 1600N FIE Removable Sabre Mask
This Allstar mask is a solid choice, and the removable, washable padding is a nice touch for hygiene,,, though I've seen a few of these bibs wear faster than the old models. Still, good protection. - 2
Uhlmann 1600N FIE Removable Sabre Mask
mybluegauntlet.comThe Uhlmann offering, practically the same as the Allstar sometimes, also with that removable padding. Made in Germany, they say, which usually means it's built to last... mostly. - 3
Leon Paul X-Change FIE Sabre Mask
leonpaul.comEveryone talks about the X-Change,,, being able to wash the whole thing is good, I guess. It's light, yeah, but the cost for replacement parts adds up over time if you're not careful. Still, FIE certified, so it'll save your skull. - 4
Negrini FIE/CE 1600N Sabre Mask (Art. 510SABRE)
mlfencing.comNegrini, always reliable. Stainless steel mesh with double corrugation, they go on about the 'memory' of the mesh... it means it holds its shape better, which is important for safety over time. Proper Italian engineering, that. - 5
PBT FIE 1600N Sabre Mask
thefencingpost.comPBT makes decent stuff, always have. This sabre mask is FIE 1600N, stainless steel frame, inox bib. Solid construction, does the job without any flashy nonsense. - 6
Allstar Comfort Inox FIE Sabre Mask
allstarnyc.comAnother Allstar, the 'Comfort Inox'. Supposed to be extra comfy, but you're not there for comfort, you're there to fence and not get brained. Still, it's 1600N with a stainless steel mesh, so it's safe. - 7
Allstar Inox FIE Sabre Mask
blue-gauntlet.comJust the regular Inox from Allstar. Robust, durable, 1600N protection. Not much more to say, it's a workhorse mask, just like the ones we used to have before all the 'ergonomic' redesigns. - 8
FWF FIE Sabre Mask
absolutefencinggear.comFWF makes good gear too. Their FIE Sabre mask meets the standards, provides the necessary protection, and you won't hear many complaints. It just works. - 9
