Spanish Thrust Rapier

The Spanish Thrust Cup-Hilt Rapier is a remarkable weapon inspired by the artistry and precision of 16th-century Spanish swordsmanship. Known for its distinctive cup-shaped hilt, this style of rapier was designed primarily as a dueling sword, favored by gentlemen and nobles who valued both protection and elegance. While not originally intended for military battle, its ornate craftsmanship and enclosed hilt made it one of the most iconic blades of the Renaissance period.

This LARP version captures that same spirit of refinement while providing the durability and safety required for modern live-action combat. The pierced and scrolled cup hilt is intricately detailed, protecting the wielder’s hand while evoking the splendor of Spanish design. The twisted spiral crossguard adds historical authenticity, creating a weapon that is as striking in appearance as it is functional in play.

Constructed from high-quality closed-cell polyurethane foam, the rapier offers flexibility and long-lasting resilience. The blade is reinforced with a fiberglass core, Kevlar fiber wrapping, and a durable plastic safety tip, ensuring safety and structural integrity in every duel. The foam density of 25 Ashore provides a softer impact, making it ideal for repeated use in LARP events.

The blade is finished with a unique Damascus-style paint detail, simulating the look of layered steel forged by master smiths. This artistic touch, paired with the carefully hand-painted hilt, ensures the weapon maintains both elegance and realism on the battlefield.

Weighing only 490g and measuring 110cm (43.3 inches), the rapier is lightweight, agile, and balanced, allowing for fast thrusts, controlled parries, and smooth handling. Its balance point has been carefully calibrated for precision, giving players the ability to move with accuracy and flair.

Whether you are portraying a Renaissance noble, a master duelist, or a daring adventurer, the Spanish Thrust Rapier adds authenticity and style to your role-play. Approved for LARP combat and reenactment, it combines visual sophistication with the safety standards required for immersive play.

More than a prop, this rapier is a fusion of artistry and combat engineering, a weapon designed to impress onlookers while delivering practical performance. With its pierced cup hilt and refined detailing, it is the ultimate statement piece for anyone seeking to dominate the battlefield with elegance.
