Rapier Swords

Developed in the 1500s, the historic rapier gained tremendous popularity as a cuttingly pointed thrusting sword. Civilian rapiers were light and compact for self-defense purposes while military rapier swords were transformed into colichemarde. Our renaissance rapiers cover diverse styles frequently influenced by the places they were used. An exclusive selection of ornamental and functional rapiers displays several unique handles with wire hilts, ring guards, and cup hilts. We make sure you have plenty of options when choosing your very next renaissance blade from historic sword replicas to Italian and musketeer rapiers.
