This one of the finest rapiers that Strongblade sells at this price range. It has a breathtaking, oversized swept hilt, chromed in nickel and swirling like a sandstorm around the hand that wields it. The weight and balance is phenomenal and the construction is flawless. It's a work of art and would add a punch-in-the-stomach pizzazz to any costume or wall. The blade is high-carbon steel, which would make the sword perfect for sparring if it weren't for the nickel-plated guard. You probably wouldn't want to use this beauty for sparring anyway: Would you fence with Michelangelo's David?

A wire-braided grip and a mirrored pommel finish off the hilt. The sheath is leather-wrapped wood with steel accents. The sword is full-tanged and hand-crafted. Go ahead and buy it. You owe it to yourself.

We now ship all of our Dreadwinds with a factory sharpened edge. If you would like the sword with a dulled edge please let us know in the "Special Instructions" section of the check out process. We also offer a additional enhanced sharpening service for our Tempered Dreadwinds which results in an even sharper edge.

Amazing
I bought this rapier and had it engraved for my graduation. It has a great feel to it and looks absolutely stunning! The engraving came out perfectly and Strongblade even contacted me before engraving to ensure it was exactly as I wanted. I couldn't recommend it more highly!

Incredible
My fiance bought 3 of these, engraved, for his groomsmen, and 1 for himself as well. They look incredible - long, beautifully made, and the engraving is perfect. He's so excited to give them to his groomsmen. We couldn't be happier with these gifts.

Great gift
Bought as a graduation gift. Beautiful sword in person, and make sure you check out measurements. I thought I understood, but the size still surprised me a bit.. A good thing though. My one nitpick would be with the engraving. Everything requested was there and looked good on the blade, but I'm also had what was probably a difficult request with one line of text almost the length of the blade. Upon close inspection I could tell where it probably had to be engraved, unlocked from the machine and moved and started again due to some small variances in gaps where the three engraving lines broke it apart on the website. At first couple of looks she never noticed, so it's not a big issue, just a picky thing. Overall very pleased to have purchased and was well received as a gift. Now just trying to find a way to display it horizontally on a wall with that big ol' basket hilt.
