Westeros Blog: Arya at her Needlework


Recommended Posts

No rapiers. GRRM's been emphatic about this when people bring it up. Braavosi swords are narrow and slender in comparison to Westerosi swords, but they aren't rapiers. No swept hilts and so on.

And what Sekhmet says. George has also said that Needle is Mikken's idea of a narrow, slender sword -- he's never actually seen a bravo's sword in his life, nor has Jon Snow, so it's no surprise if some elements (the hilt) are more Westerosi than Braavosi.
