I believe some fencers on this forum have mentioned that a parry is not simply blocking with a weapon, but also getting out of the way in small ways that don't qualify as a gurps dodge.

Also, there already is a rule about not being able to parry weapons greater than some percentage of basic lift increased for two weapon parries.
