 Italian Rapier
These quillions were similar to the knuckleguards described above, but instead of curving straight downward toward the pommel, they also curved around the handle and the blade.
While the front quillion usually still curved toward the pommel, and the back quillion curved toward the blade, they also curved in a counterclockwise direction, thus helping protect the hand from blows from more directions.
In addition, what started as a single front quillion which bent toward the pommel later became a more complex pattern or multiple bars, curving downward and joining together partway to the pommel, thus providing better protection (as the multiple bars could block blows from a larger variety of angles).

A functional choil is a circular cut-out between the blade and the handle.

On the site you can see the strand transformations (which are being reset, except for the strand sent to me) and also a map of its spread across the U.S. The Quillion is a quite different type of collaborative networked writing.
