A rapier is a narrow, 2-edged sword. This model, based on early 17c. German examples, has a complex swept hilt that also covers the unsharpened part of the blade.
The model comes in five levels of detail, from a low-poly 760 triangles to a high-poly 11,144 triangles. Also
included is a very high-poly source mesh that the normal maps were baked from. The model is fully textured, and
includes materials with diffuse and specular maps, as well as a cubic reflection map and custom normal maps for
each level-of-detail. The textures are 2048x2048 and can easily be automatically resized by Unity.
The rapier was fashionable with Italian, French, Spanish, English, and German swordsmen, and often featured in the duels of the period. The early modern rapier, also referred to as spada, espada, or épée, was most common between 1500 and 1715 and is distinct from the modern fencing swords.
