Let's see shall we

Close Range

I'm going to give the edge to the Rapier. A curved sword like the Sabila is much more effective when used on horseback because of the momentum you can get when swinging and against the steel cuirass slashing ain't going to be very effective anyway. The Tercio's Rapier is primarily a thrusting weapon which is more effective against the chainmail the Streltsy are wearing and it's also a better weapon for blocking as well. It's also longer and heavier which is always a plus.

Edge: Tercio

Mid Range
