#169 Bavarian Rapier
This type of rapier was often chosen as a distinct sword design by elite military groups of the 17th century. Many examples survive from Saxon and Bavarian corps. The epitome of a classic rapier, it could not be bettered as an example of the sword makers art.
Arms & Armor produces this rapier with an authentic twisted wire wrapped grip using fine wire and a tight twist not often seen in modern reproductions. The inner guard has a three bar set of the normal type. Please indicate your preference for a standard satin steel finish or special blued hilt (see below) when ordering.
