Nov 10, 2020 at 14:56 comment added PipperChip I suspect you lived up to your name, LazyReader. I specifically asked for buying guides or resources for acquiring sharp, functional swords. Oakeshot's typology, while useful, doesn't really apply here. Also, the idea that brutal sword play is performed by bastard swords shows a distinct lack of appreciation for the various fighting systems and possibly a little confusion on what a rapier is. To many of us, "rapiers" are straight-edged, one handed, thrust centric weapon for war, not a smallsword or fencing foil, which are for civilian use.
