Monsieur LÕAbbat was an early 18th century tutor of fencing and sword fighting, who instructed many students in France with the techniques contained in this guidebook.

Discussing techniques, tactics, stances, and movements essential for the skilled swordsman, LÕAbbat treats the pivotal motions with great attention. With the aid of pictorial examples alongside, we learn how to assume a good battle stance, how to lunge or thrust in attack or defend with a parry or riposte. The finer points of conduct during a sword fight are given much attention, with LÕAbbat relating experiences with other masters of the craft.

Monsieur LÕAbbat lived at the time the culture of the musketeers was at its height. Emblematic of French bonhomie and martial prowess, these soldiers were expected to gain mastery of both the musket firearm and the thin, lengthy sabre. Many would hone their techniques with both weapons for years in special military barracks.

Thick indoor balls, of a darker pink color.
Style: 6 - Pack, Color: Pink
Good indoor pickleballs. The description said they were outdoor (thin crisp plastic) but they are thicker. By the picture on my pc monitor, they looked brighter pink than they actually are. I was hoping to use these outdoors in the early morning rising sun, on a blue court with yellow green edging, but the color is too dark to be of use. So when we move indoors for winter, we will use these indoor balls there. They arrived quickly and were well packaged.

Great but hard to see when playing!
Style: 6 - Pack, Color: Purple
The balls are great but when playing with them, if you wear glasses the ball is a little hard to see. We played with the orange, yellow and green balls, which are easier on the eyes. Otherwise, the balls are great! 😍

Great value
Style: 6 - Pack, Color: Purple
Although pickle ball snobs have told me these are NOT proper outdoor balls, I love them! Not only are they a fantastic color but I like the weight of them and they are great for outdoor play. As a bonus, they are well-priced, so I feel I got bang for my buck.

Bright color easy to see but not a great bounce on the outdoor court
Style: 6 - Pack, Color: Pink
I liked the fact that these balls were a bright color and easy to see but the bounce on them was not as good as other name brands. They were OK as a back-up and performed better outside then on the indoor courts which are made of a different surface. We are using them , but would most likely not repurchase.

Price was best I found for quantity anywhere
Style: 6 - Pack, Color: Purple
I am a beginner and by no means an expert, but these balls appear to be as any other. The couple at the next court had a Franklin ball that came our way, and I bounced it and popped it back - I couldn't tell any difference in that instance. Sports stores had just one color - yellow (maybe one had chartreuse) amazon has single colors multiple - I thought it was worth this purchase. The purple may be harder to see on cloudy days - as I had on sunglasses and I could see it, but the fence at the court has a "privacy" net, it kinda bleneded in for a very brief moment until the sound was heard of the return, then no problem.
