Jaime,

Based on your plain English description, there is still an open
question.  Are you wanting the rapiers (points to the bottom) to be A)
in an X formation with the points to the bottom or B) straight vertical
with points to bottom.

Blazon for A) would be:  Vert, two rapiers inverted in saltire argent,
in chief a horseshoe, a bordure embattled Or.

Blazon for B) would be:  Vert, two rapiers inverted, in chief a
horseshoe, a bordure embattled Or.

If I am not mistaken (though I may be) a horseshoe by default is points
upward.  If I am mistaken, then add the word inverted after the
horseshoe in the blazon.

I haven't conflict checked those yet but I will try to today if someone
doesn't beat me to it.

Okay, so the blazon was:

 Vert, two rapiers fesswise in saltire argent, a horseshoe opening to
chief
in cheif or, all within a bordure embattled or.

Basically, a green field, I want two rapiers, points to base, argent,
and
above them, a horseshoe, points to cheif, or, within a border thats
embattled or.

Jaime/Joseph



Quoting DdL:
If you have any doubt about your blazoning skill, please give the
proposed blazon and a plain English description.

Quoting Blaise:

Did you (Joseph) maybe mean forming an X, hilts to sinister?  (SWAG)
