Product description
One of the most well-known Renaissance swords was the rapier which was mainly used as a duel and fashion weapon. This slim sword already originated in 1470 and changed to a fast stabbing weapon without cutting edges. The small sword, also a fashion accessory and a duel weapon, is also often classified as a rapier, but this sword was obviously wider at the grip than the point.
The length of this rapier is 108 cm with a blade of 90 cm and a cross-guard of 20,5 cm.
This rapier is custom made.
