Rapiers
The rapier was the first civilian weapon, developing as the use of armor declined.
A thrust and cut weapon, the rapier first appeared in the late 1400's and had its heyday up to the 1600's. The 1600's saw the start of the transitional rapier as hilts
became smaller and blades were designed more for thrusting and less for cutting. The cup hilt rapier made its appearance in
the early 1650's in Spain, and enjoyed popularity in Spain and Southern Italy until the early 1700's. The rapier was often used
with a second defensive weapon; daggers, bucklers, and cloaks were the most popular. While daggers were often decorated
"en suite" with their companion rapier, it was by no means unusual to have a "mismatched" set of rapier and dagger. Much
lighter than the broadsword of medieval times, the rapier brought about a whole new style of swordplay and a proliferation
of fencing schools. The rapier marked the earliest beginnings of fencing as a sport.
