High Middle Ages Silver Rapier Sword

For the cost, it’s cool to have. Ya the scabbard is crappy. The blade is flimsy. But holding it in your hand feels really very cool! The engraving is a very nice touch! A Princess Bride type sword!

I really liked the look of the sword as the wire-basket hilt and rapier style matched my intended persona of a Musketeer, but I was somewhat worried about the negative reviews I had seen. I did note that none of the negative reviews were too recent so I took the plunge and ordered one with my name engraved on the blade. I was very pleased with it when it came in. No defects at all - tight, straight blade, wire-wrapping on handle, and leather scabbard were all in pristine condition as expected. The free knife that was thrown in was nice too - I'll definitely return here for any of my replica weapon needs.

When I first received this sword I was not impressed. The quality was poor and it looked like no thought was put into it. My first problem with it was the handle, the wire wrap felt like it was barbed wired and the guard rattled and felt like it would disconect anytime. The guard felt like it was spray painted and looked just awful. Then there was the problem with the blade, the blade was off center when connecting to the handle which made it very crooked and the center of the blade was bent and the blade clearly showed it leaving a black bend mark. The scaberd was all twisted and the metal easily slipped off, it almost looked like it was done by less than a novice. All in all, it was a very disappointing buy.

This sword is the bomb!Gorgeous indeed. Just saw 3 musketeers. I now see why evert one kept calling it a 3 musketeers sword. Oh if you guys have an extra scabbard laying around i will by it. As the that came with it had a bent tip and is a little long..But great sword.5 STARS

The sword is good, but that scabbard is so tight, you have to pull very hard to get the sword out.

excellent,very beautiful sword. the wire wrap could use a little more length to it. but nothing that would cause any discomfort when cos-playing as a pirate or Frenchmen. over all a beautiful piece

Can you guys make hand forged replicas of the rapiers from princess bride please I'm looking for one to get my sister since I'm teaching her all the lessons I took back when I was a fencer. Plus it's her favorite movie.
Response: We'll see what we can do!

I bought this sword some time ago and just now writing the review on it. What can I say This rapier was my first sword that I bought. The reason being I wanted a replica just like in three musketeers. It looks great

This is a really beautiful sword. I presented this sword to my best friend at his wedding. I had his military service engraved on this sword with the US Army medalian attached to the sheath. So this made an incredible gift and I would recommend this sword to anyone whose looking for something elegant and beautiful.

I have waited three years for my rapier and finally after I have one and going to get one to match it. it balance is good the weight is heavier than I thought it would be and that makes it really good . I can spare with a friend after getting the matching one. The fame of the Rapier Sword ... well the name speaks for itself. I would recommend the Rapier to collectors and others who would like a piece of history and for the fun of learning how to use a real sword . Thanks BUDK .
