Musketeer Rapier
|
Musketeer Rapier features a hilt with basket that is ambidextrous and a very effective mix of both the cup-hilt and swept-hilt style. The grip is wood wrapped with twisted wire and the parts of the hilt are plated with gleaming nickel silver. Musketeer Rapier is hand forged from well tempered carbon steel. The overall length of the Musketeer Rapier is 46 inches.
The musket, though the prime weapon of the French Musketeer, was a cumbersome firearm, both to load and fire, so a good rapier was a necessary second weapon.

In honor of Alexander Dumas and the timeless characters from his beloved novel, this piece has an etched French style cross, often associated with the Musketeers, on its hilt.
Overall Length: 46"
Blade Length: 37 1/2"
