Hanwei - Practical Rapier 43 - SH1098

The Practical Rapier utilizes the popular hilt from the 1027S-GT Rapier, modified to accomodate our SCA-approved 43" Schlager blade (see Model 1098-GT for the 37" length). The tapered blade form provides superior balance compared to the traditional parallel-sided schlagers of the same length, making for a faster sword. The high-carbon steel blade provides good flexibility and is button-tipped for safety. Overall Length: 49-1/4" Blade: 43" Weight: 2 lbs 5oz High-carbon steel blade Excellent balance Button-tipped
