Product description
This renaissance rapier dates back to the early 17th century, when fencing with the rapier was part of the education of gentlemen. The blades were often forged in Toledo or Solingen, while the hilts were made throughout Europe.
The approximately 94 cm long blade is forged from 1566 carbon steel. Cross-guard, quillons and pommel are made of brushed stainless steel; the grip is wrapped with brown cord and provides space for fencing gloves. The rapier is delivered disassembled, including a key to secure the pommel and grip, and with scabbard.
This weapon is intended for collectors, as decoration and as a historical accessory for re-enactment and living history. The blade is not suitable for fighting or sparring.
