Wonderful rapier! beautiful! The sapphires are a superb touch!

You have done a great job for a 'quickie'. I love the detail in the scabbard and hilt and the sapphires are well done. You rarely get to see scabbards around here, so this is a pleasant change of pace. Two toes up!

I love the scabbard too! If you have this made into a real sword it would look lovely. I'd have one!!

*drools at sapphires* I love sapphires!

Are we sure those are sapphires? They could be lapis lazuli or something . . . LOL.

Okay, just kidding. Like I said, loopy.

I DO like this one. It's a quickie? *SNICKER* It's rare that you don't have backgrounds, isn't it? Give this sucker a background, Tim! It's worth it! I adore the strap you have winding down the sheath, and I even like the elegance of the handguard. Since the blade is so straight, the "extraneous" is okay IMO. Once more, I am struck by your color scheme - the gold in this piece is much lighter, fitting the thin quality of the weapon, and that it is at both ends really draws attention to the scabbard itself. And, like your other commentors, I also like the blue gems (though I'm partial to sapphires, yay Libra, I would think they would shine more).

I don't really have any criticism for this one. That glaring white is forgiven because of your own comment. ^_~
