A true military rapier with a commanding presence! I wonder this is the rapier Christ would command an army with (Christus Imperat). Thanks for the review! I would say with that blade width, it might even be capable of delivering rather effective cuts.

Holy moly Brother Nate! That's a work of art. Function and craft all seamlessly melded together. What a great review. If there was a way to get one made and transported to Europe without me having to sell a kidney and/or it being randomly seized by customs I'd be hopping on the good ship Properly Done Rapier with you.

What a sword!

Is there any of the main companies that produce anything remotely comparable to this?

It looks like you got a good one there. I like. Most repro rapiers have a blade more flexible than my liking. I lucked out on my Pilsen with its >6mm blade and was afraid to try another fearing a blade less to my liking. Thanks for sharing.

choseychas: Anyone have any info on MyArmoury registration? Been wanting to make an account for a year or more (can't remember at this point) but every time I've checked they've halted registrations. Nov 17, 2024 21:55:36 GMT

alinkinthechain: I also do love Boston. I've traveled a bit and nothing feels as wonderful as that city to me. I'm lucky to live nearby Nov 12, 2024 15:28:16 GMT

txhighlander: Boston might be my fav. So much history, and clean! and great food. New York was cool for a day to see iconic landmarks Nov 7, 2024 17:00:22 GMT
