#142 Musketeer Rapier
A combination of spectacular style and deadly utility make this rapier a bold addition to any gentleman's costume. The sturdiness would serve a musketeer for many years, while the ornate piercing in the fore ring and backguard would impress the most fashion conscious individual in society. The faceted mushroom-shaped pommel balances this rapier well back for excellent point control and creates an impressive heft to the piece. Blackened, the sword is finished to a velvety sheen and mounted with a wire-wrapped grip of blackened steel.

Our Musketeer Dagger #134 is made to complete a matching set.
