<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">pointless olympic event?</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for epee that I've seen before include "Fencing weapon" , "sports equipment" , "Fighting blade" , "Type of sword" , "there's a point to it" .)
