This is my new show rapier I’ve been working on for almost a year. It’s nice for when I want to show off my stuff.
Hilt is a Pierced 3 Ring Swept, based on an Italian sword.
Handle is Produk rosewood.
The blade has 4 Fullers. Size is 1/4" thick 7/8” wide, 40inches long made from 5160 spring steel, tempered 50 Rockwell C.
Over all it has a good balance but it’s to long for my short body so I’ll never fight with it.
