Cinema is movement. The blade is the storyteller.
We are proud to introduce the next member of The Guild - our circle of elite ambassadors who define the modern spirit of the blade.
Meet Juliette Sureau ().
Juliette is a multidisciplinary artist who brings the sword to life through the lens of a filmmaker and the soul of an actor. For her, a blade is far more than a weapon - it is a powerful instrument of narrative and expression. As a "Weapon Wielder" in the worlds of film and performance, she understands that every strike and every parry tells a story of its own.
While she has recently begun her personal journey into the world of HEMA, Juliette already possesses an instinctive connection to the steel. She treats the sword as a partner in her art, capturing its lethal beauty with the precision of a director and the grace of a performer.
Her presence in The Guild represents the cinematic soul of Nova Fencing. Juliette reminds us that the blade belongs not only on the tournament floor but also in the spotlight of artistic creation.
Witness how Juliette translates our craftsmanship into visual poetry in the weeks to come. The narrative is just beginning.

Superiority isn’t given. It’s engineered.
At Nova Fencing, we don’t just follow standards. We set them.
Behind the dark, elegant finish of our blades lies a complex world of patented innovations. While others copy the past, we protect the future of fencing through unique technologies that exist only within our walls.
It’s the reason why our steel feels different in the hand. Faster. Stronger. More reliable. These secrets are the foundation of our craft - and the reason why the world’s elite choose Nova.
We don’t reveal the formula. We let the performance speak for itself.
Don’t take our word for it. Head to the link in our bio, explore the collection, and feel the patented difference yourself. Own the edge.
