A heavier variant of the Rapier, the estoc is a very, two-handed long sword with a sharped tip used for thrusting. Designed for piercing chainmail and catching the gaps between modern plate, an estoc requires a considerable amount of both strength and dexterity to use effectively. Wielded more like a heavy steel spear - or even a long nail - than a proper sword, the estoc is typically straight and edgeless: ensuring its wielder is focused on punching through their adversary's armor rather than slash at exposed flesh.
