The men's épée was a fencing event held as part of the Fencing at the 1920 Summer Olympics programme. It was the fifth appearance of the event. Of the six fencing events, this was the only one in which Nedo Nadi did not win a gold medal—he did not compete. Instead, a trio of Frenchmen swept the medals.
A total of 80 fencers from 13 nations competed in the event, which was held on August 22 and August 23, 1920.
