This cup hilt rapier is built with a faux-ricasso that sleeves the true tang. The turned quillions and knucklebow are steel, as is the cup (which is 18ga. with a rolled edge). The cup is securely pinned in place between the ricasso and the blade shoulder. A brass spacer sits between the blade and the cup. The grip is brass wire over solid PETG. Pommel is threaded 6mm.

The blade and scabbard are by Cold Steel, taken from one of their Cavalier Rapiers.
