This sabre handle is a standard sized grip made from durable rubber over an aluminum core.  This makes the grip much more durable and moves the balance point of the weapon back to your hand.  Because the heavier handle shifts the balance point of the weapon into your hand, most fencers realize an increase in blade speed and accuracy.

This black sabre handle features good tactile feel as the rubber is soft enough to give a little more grip than a plastic handle and won't get slick like some of the leather handles.

This grip weighs in at 68 grams vs. 38 grams for the standard rubber sabre handle.
