Italian Renaissance Sword 1480-1520 game ready for either games or simulations. The lenght is about 1.40 meters or 55 inches. The spada da lato (Italian) or side-sword is a type of sword popular through the 16th century. It is a continuation of the medieval arming sword, and the immediate predecessor (or early form) of the rapier of the Early Modern period. Its use was taught in the Dardi school of Italian fencing, and was influential on the classical rapier fencing of the 17th century. The equivalent Spanish term, espada ropera (dress sword) is the origin of the term rapier.[citation needed] Italian antiquarians use the term spada da lato for rapiers typical of the period of c. 1560–1630, the Italian term for the fully developed rapier of the later 17th century is spada da lato striscia, or just spada striscia strip-sword.
