[Ansteorra] Rapier Question

Darkwood tips work differently from other tips. The blade must NOT be
seated all the way into the tip. Seat it but then back it out 1/8 inch. Fix
out in place there so it can't slide further down the blade. I recommend a
good glue like Duco or E6000 but rubber cement will serve. Then tape it in
place. So long as that tip does not slide down the blade it should last a
long time.
