This is an outstanding price since saber lames normally start at about $85. There are also saber masks at around $50 - $60. Finances permitting, the club will be buying a few saber masks and lames since we are planning on adding saber to our other classes. We hope to be hosting a saber clinic very soon with the help of the Missoula club. Please make sure you get your October equipment fees in.
