Product description

This rapier is a replica of originals from the late sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. In this period the rapier was used instead of the sword in Europe. The rapier originated in Spain in the fifteenth century as a weapon for self-defense and duels. In the following century people started using the rapier in the war. It was primarily a weapon for the elite with its beautiful streamlined forms.

This rapier made of carbon steel is semi-sharp with a grip wrapped with steel wire. It is delivered including a black leather scabbard with steel ends.
