Hello Triarri, congraulations with the 3 original Pappenheimer rapiers, the blade type as in your gilded one would be used in these type of Rapiers , blades of that size and type were (mostly) found in Italian rapiers during the mid 16th C.
But they can also appear in French, German and Spannish rapiers.

Great, thankyou very much - blade on the second left looks very similar.
I responded to your PM on these (apols that I initially missed it) but things glitched. Let me know if you didn't get my PM as its not showing in my message centre.
