Solingen Rapier by Paul Chen, Antiqued Version
The Swept-Hilt Rapier made by Hanwei 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 of the
same size as the 17th century German piece on which it is based, providing an authentic feel in the user’s hand, and the weight
and balance also match the original.
This antiqued version of the Solingen Swept-Hilt Rapier features a hilt finish developed by Hanwei that
allows a museum-quality patina to be applied to stainless steel while the non-corroding properties of the steel are retained.
This finish is very attractive and gives an authentic appearance to the sword.
The blade is interchangeable with the Hanwei Practical blade which is designed for safety
in rapier sparring.
Made by Hanwei.
