Cold Steel – CS88FCR – Cavalier Rapier – Fixed Blade Knife – 1055 Polished – Wire Wrapped – Silver

Description

In the mid-1600s, dueling reached its pinnacle of popularity, prompting King Louis XIII of France to outlaw the practice due to the risk of losing important dignitaries. Aristocratic noblemen, viewing sword fighting as a manly duty, sought the expertise of specialist sword masters and explored new weapon types. The Cavalier Rapier emerged as a smaller, lighter, and faster version, offering a decisive edge in combat. Cold Steel’s interpretation of this blade features a sharp, double-edged, needle-tipped design, shorter and lighter than a classic rapier, enhancing speed and agility. The Cavalier Rapier boasts a tempered steel pierced shell guard, rings, quillons, and knuckle bow, providing excellent hand protection. The wire-wrapped grip and counterbalancing pommel contribute to comfort and liveliness in-hand.
