Hanwei Gustav Rapier (SH2206)

Our stunning new rapier design from Hanwei is based upon the original rapier owned by King Gustav II Adolf (1594-1632). Gustav was the monarch of Sweden from 1611-1632 and is most noted as an excellent military tactician during the Thirty Years War.

This forged high-carbon spring steel rapier is a reproduction of the original (and fit for a king). The impressive hilt has two unique shells to protect the hand, wire wrapped handle, elegant lines throughout the guard and a heart shaped pommel.

A full length leather scabbard is included free of charge.

Measurements:
Overall Length 45 1/4 inches
