    The Practical Rapier has an SCA-approved 43 inch Schlager blade. 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. The hilt features solid steel construction with a wire wrapped grip. No scabbard available.

    1 review for Hanwei Practical Rapier 43 Inch Blade

    1. Lauren

      This sword is good for SCA rapier fighting, especially for the price compared to other economy rapiers. I got to use the 37 inch as a loaner sword for a while and it was a bit short so I decided to get my own 43 inch.
      Just be aware that it is quite heavy compared to other swords. I personally was fine with the extra weight as I am aiming to build strength at practices, but it has taken a bit of getting used to.
      Also the guard is very large and pretty, but has gaps that make hand shots more likely. It is okay as long as you are aware of it and protect your hands. In the future, I am considering adding velvet to the inside of the guard for aesthetic and an added layer of protection.
