HELP US MAKE A DIFFERENCE
Blades for Better Project
At Blades for Better, we believe small actions can create meaningful change.
Every year, thousands of fencing blades break and are thrown away—ending up in landfills where they contribute to long-term waste. Blades for Better was created to change that. Our mission is to collect these broken blades and recycle them through certified metal facilities, giving them a second life while promoting environmental sustainability in the fencing community.
This is not a fundraising campaign. The money earned from recycling is minimal. What matters is the impact: reducing waste, raising awareness, and creating a culture of responsibility within our sport.
We invite fencers, clubs, and event organizers to join us. Whether by donating used blades, volunteering, or simply spreading the word, every small step helps build a cleaner, more conscious fencing community.
Support our recycling mission.
While recycling fencing blades generates only modest funds, every dollar goes to the current project. Your contribution goes directly toward covering logistics—not profit. Any extra money goes directly to the current project. Help us make fencing more sustainable. Click the box above to learn more.
