Broken Kvetun Easton saber blade!

I’ve already reached out to Kvetun, so this isn’t a customer service post but I’ve never seen an Easton blade break before and we have many of them at our club and have for a couple years. The saber is only about 6 months old, used maybe weekly and only in a few tournament bouts. It broke during light drills against an identical blade. The grain structure looks a tiny bit coarse to my untrained eye. Was pretty crazy as we’ve never seen one of these break!

Hah! That would be something. It’s a small sitting area in our fencing club. We have some couches, tables and chairs for people waiting, eating, hanging out or whatever.
