I'm going to eliminate the rapier reference if no one objects, since the rapier is a civilian weapon for unarmored combat, not a military weapon for use in war. --Wilhelm Ritter 15:32, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Hi Ritter, I went by this page. I don't think it is necessary to eliminate the rapier reference, since contempories at the time were not very choisy or precise about how they name weapons. It would be useful if there are primary texts for rodelero references, such as THE PRINCE or earlier histories. -Chin
