Not really for duel, but for sports and training.

It certainly has the form of a sport epee, possibly early 20th century, except for the sharp point! So perhaps it was intended for the duel, not to the death but to first blood. Sport epees at this time had a short triple point tip, just enough to catch in the clothing. Nowadays they have a flat spring-loaded tip and are all electronic.

Yes, the original FLEURET had a protected point called "La mouche".
