Taza Cup-Hilt Rapier

(Ref: HW2035)

Long extolled as the pinnacle of rapier design, the “Spanish” or “Cup-Hilt” rapier undoubtedly combined style and function very effectively in 17th century Europe. The very best of these weapons featured beautifully pierced cups and pommels and Hanwei has replicated these to perfection and combined them with an elegantly tapered high-carbon steel blade in our “Taza” rapier (the name comes from the French, who called this style “a la Taza”). A leather-covered scabbard is included.

Taza Main Gauche

(Ref: HW2137)

Matching the HW2035 “Taza” Cup-Hilt Rapier, the “Taza” Main Gauche is a beautifully decorated piece in the style of Spanish rapiers of the mid-17th century. The distinctive triangular knuckle guard and the pommel are pierced in foliate decoration while the high-carbon steel blade is exquisitely chiselled in the style of the period.

Practical Taza Cup-Hilt Rapier

(Ref: HW2261)

Designed for the rapier fencer with a preference for the cup-hilt style who wishes to spar in saftey, our Practical Cup-hilt Rapier & Main Gauche fit the bill perfectly. The rapier blade is similiar in design to the practical blades for the swept-hilts but the length is adapted for the cup-hilt. The main gauche blade is uniquely styled to maintain the Spainish influence.
