Details
"Saxony" is a recreation of a beautiful 16th century German rapier, inspired by the fine collection of German Renaissance Rapier in the New York Metropolitan Museum of Arts and other European museum collections. This is another exacting recreation that LK Chen has taken on, with with valuable input from experts in the details of its decoration and construction methods such as the braiding of the elaborate "Turkish head" wire knots in the hilt.
