OVERVIEW
Circa 17th Century
This stunning rapier has an expertly crafted swept & twisted metal basket. The heavily carved horn grip mimics the elegantly twisted metal of the hilt and is hand-wound and inset with a single steel accent wire that provides an excellent grip while dueling. The hand-forged, high carbon steel blade has a flattened oval cross-section and an extended, custom engraved ricasso for strength. Better yet is the aristocratic, dashing look this magnificent and fast rapier gives the wearer when rakishly hanging from a belt.
Includes leather scabbard. Made by Windlass Steelcrafts.
Note: although the picture shows a black grip, each grip is unique and can be different in color due to the natural horn used. Many will be black with grey and light brown marbling.
