A few days later, in the team épée competition, the Norwegian team was eliminated by Bohemia and Sweden in the first group stage, losing both close-matched ties. He would get his last chance in the individual épée competition a few days later. This time, he did get through the initial group stage, winning four out of six bouts in pool 7. In the next group stage, he lost all five bouts, not qualifying to the semifinals from pool 3.
