Hi Jim
Just wondering, were all the elements of the guards on original rapiers forged in one piece? Did they ever braze any of the pieces into place, or were they only forge welded or riveted? After looking at some of the more elaborate examples and how complicated they were it makes me wonder how they were made.  Thanks.Robert Last edited by Robert Coleman; 12th February 2009 at 04:42 AM. |
