Rapier

Rapier

Rapier is a white weapon with a long, straight and double-edged sword, longer than a saber. Its origins date back to the early Renaissance, when the need for arms worn "everyday" by the burghers came into being. It was the most popular weapon of Western Europe from the 16th to the 17th century. In Poland, however, it was mainly used by the army of foreign authors. Contrary to popular opinion, it is a relatively heavy and slow weapon - it required a lot of physical fitness from the swordsman. Although at the beginning he was equally engaged in cuts and engravings, his evolution as a secular weapon had disappeared. The rapier should be considered every single white weapon with undercurbs, with free access to the basket, a full horseshoe horseshoe and a head intended mainly for thrusts. The above definition is based on the criterion of functionality. There is also another, based on the appearance of the weapon, given, for example, by Zdzisław Żygulski. Rapier jest bronią białą o długiej, prostej i obusiecznej klindze, dłuższą od szabli. Jego początki sięgają wczesnego renesansu, kiedy to zrodziła się potrzeba broni noszonej "na co dzień" przez mieszczan. Był najpopularniejszą bronią Europy Zachodniej od XVI do XVII wieku. Natomiast w Polsce był używany głównie przez wojska autoramentu cudzoziemskiego. Wbrew obiegowym opiniom jest on stosunkowo ciężką i powolną bronią – wymagał od posługującego się nim szermierza sporej sprawności fizycznej. Mimo iż początkowo na równi służył do cięć i sztychów, w drodze ewolucji jego znaczenie jako broni siecznej zanikło. Za rapier należy uznać każdą jednoręczną broń białą posiadająca podkrzyże wraz z wolnym do niego dostępem od strony kosza, pełną oślą podkowę oraz głownię przeznaczoną głównie do pchnięć. Powyższa definicja jest oparta na kryterium funkcjonalności. Istnieje także inna, oparta na wyglądzie broni, podawana np. przez Zdzisława Żygulskiego.
