## Description

40" Polypropylene Rapier Training Sword

Review: This is perfect, and I think the two main complaints are mostly a non-issue. - I love this thing! Got it today and I am in love with it. Already began practicing with the Rapier and I can't wait to wear it to the RenFaire. That being said, there are two main concerns I have seen people comment about which almost put me off buying this. - The first is that blade is slightly bent. I feel like this is to be expected because the blade is meant to bend upon impact. Significant bends can be bent back. However, with the bend in mind, it is easy for the bottom of the hilt all the way to tip to be a straight line, even if the blade bends slightly on the way there. - Some folk claim the handguard doesn't stay on. I am not sure if they fixed it, but I think that is because they put it on wrong. The handguard requires a decent amount of force to lock it in place. Once locked in place, it isn't going anywhere. It's a push, turn, and lock style mechanism. Before I ensured I turned it all the way, I did have problems with it coming off. So, to those having this issue, simply turn it all the way to the right as intended.
Review: With a little adjustments, great for ren faire - Bought this to complete my fit for an out of town ren faire. Didn’t want any problems with TSA. When it arrived the flat black finish was the only negative. It dismantled easily. Painted the blade in metallic gray and the hilt in metallic black. This rapier is an excellent choice for anyone going to a ren faire. It offers a great combination of performance, and authenticity, all at an affordable price. I highly recommend this sword.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: is it good for sparring.**
A: These are great for sparring. They far exceeded my expectations. Strong plastic but still has a lot of bend like a foil.

**Q: How do you hold these swords? I dont see quillions so im not aure how to hold these compared to a traditional rapier.**
A: You would hold it like a normal short or long sword put at a 45° angle from you're body

**Q: Alright so this has been asked once already but it didnt get a good answer. Is it stiff or really whippy. In comprison with  foil, epee or cut thrust?**
A: In my experience.it is somewhere in between.

**Q: how much does it weight?**
A: It is extremely light and so whippy it cannot be seriously used.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good practice weapon once modified
*by B***E on February 28, 2026*

Not bad at all. Good flex in the blade, though it's definitely more a saber than rapier. Only issue was the ball at the tip. That thing is dangerous lol. I cut it off and replaced it with a standard fencing tip.
