A tournament held periodically to give the rapier community a chance to test themselves against the Masters and Mistresses of Defense. Similar to the Tournament of Chivalry, and perhaps held in conjunction with that event, there is no specific victor.
History
The first Tournament of Defense was held (when?)

- 3. b. a meeting at an appointed time and place for the performance of knightly exercises and sports. Dictionary.com
