Things Fencers Want

[ragnvaeig]

This past year, I put up a few prizes for the Pennsic "By the Book" rapier tourney. It took me a couple months to come up with something that would be sufficiently suitable for any fencer to win, useful, something for which I already have skills, and in keeping with the "authenticity" theme of the tournament: handkerchiefs embroidered with motifs from the Sture shirts. Am something at a loss for this coming year's prize, as I need to work within the same criteria, even if I have a bit more disposable income I can throw at the project this year.

Suggestions? What do fencers want?
