It is not a sword, it is a foil.

When will we hear about ‘sword violence’? The perps were not fairly treated because they didn’t have a weapon! /s
Seriously though, why only $50,000 bail?

"And I didn't want to be a hypocrite who just tweeted about it."..
The brave swordsman, who had just finished practice and
was still in his fencing duds,grabbed his weapon from the
backseat and charged toward the robbers. talk about bravery (& fine sword skills :), good for him...
now let's watch..Is UofTn going to censure him for fighting
w/ an weapon off campus?very doubtful, This is the South.

Was it a ‘military-style’ assault foil?

Nice bluff. Fencing swords aren’t sharpened at the tip.
Then again, there is a reason bayonet charges used to scare the crap out of enemies. Nobody likes the idea of being impaled on a thin steel spike.
Kudos to the hero. That was a brave act.
And let this be a lesson to the hi-cap CCW crowd who always thinks you need at least one round for each perp. 99% of the time, one shot is all you need to get all the perps to flee. They don’t usually stick around to find out if you are carrying only 6 or 13 with a reload.

At one time, my husband had to use a cane for a while. I bought him a metal Dragon cane. The handle was the Dragon with red eyes. Turn the dragon and pull out the long dagger of about 14 inches. These canes are outlawed in some states but not Texas.
When he used that cane, people would stare at the Dragon handle.
