Neapolitan Vibes

The Galante Cup-Hilt Rapier, with its essential curves, a heat-treated cup and a modern cross section is a perfect entry-level rapier or spada da lato a striscia, as the Italians would call it. In fact, this rapier offers an incredibly light handling and good flexibility that allows it to practise safely. The Galante Cup-Hilt Rapier is a sport version of the 17th century historical ones, simplified and designed specifically for Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA).

A perfect blade!
I have been sparring with my Galante for a while now and I have never gotten more compliments for a blade. The construction is immaculate and refined. I am pleased that the blade is purpose built to bend in a safe way, and the hardened cup hilt rings like a bell almost musically when struck. Buy this if you want to religiously convert to rapier.
