Hanwei Torino Rapier
Torino Rapier
Based on models of 17th century swept-hilt Italian rapiers the Hanwei Torino Rapier has the classic straight cross guard styling which was popular in this part of Europe. This rapier features classical lines, with a high-carbon steel flex-tempered blade, a stainless steel hilt (for reduced maintenance) with "blade catcher" quillons and a twisted-wire grip.
The hilt is the same size as the original, providing an authentic feel in the user's hand and weight and balance also match originals. The blade is interchangeable with the blunt practical blade (OH2255) which is designed for safety in rapier sparring.
The matching Main Gauche (SH2207) may also be equipped with a sparring blade (OH2256).
