Cup-Hilted Rapier
The Cup-Hilted Rapier features a long, slender blade with a central groove running along its length on both sides and a slight taper towards the tip. The hilt is predominantly made of metal, showcasing a cup-shaped guard that is intricately decorated with etched designs. Above the guard, the grip is wrapped in dark material, possibly leather or wire, and topped with a spherical pommel. A twisted metal knuckle guard extends from the pommel, curving around to the side of the hilt. The guard itself is bowl-shaped, with a decorative pattern etched into its surface. The overall color of the rapier appears to be a silver or gray tone, indicating it is likely made of metal.
