Fencing in the Renaissance style is rapidly growing in popularity, combining the quickness of light blades with the structure and spirit of the duel. This version of the Fencing Rapier carries the Schlager blade (see also 1032-GT), which is a tough lozenge-section blade based on the German "Mansur" style. Separately available accessories include the 301-OK sheath, the ACDI09 mask (the use of a mask is strongly recommended for use with these weapons) and the 1501-GT Fencing Jacket. Replacement blades are also available (Model LASP01).
