In Fencing, a Simultaneous touch is when two fencers of any weapon hit each other at the same time. The rules and rulings of simultaneous touches vary by weapon. In Foil, a fencer may hit their opponent at the same moment their opponent hits them, and the lights for both fencers will go off. The touch can be determined by determining who has right of way. In Sabre, the same rules apply. However, Épée is the exception. In Épée, if both fencers hit each other and both of their lights are lit, both fencers receive 1 point. This is unlike Foil or Sabre, in which Simultaneous touches garner no points to either fencer.
