1-That's the basic type of Rapier, the "2D+Pointy stick" type. IIRC it was called an Estoc or Estoque, at least in spanish.

2-Myrtenaster can still cut. Not as good as it thrusts, but hey, it's a Rapier, not a real sword.

3-Lenght is kinda hard to determine precisely in shows like this. You're watching it through a screen. Things's sizes vary depending on the resolution of the screen, how close they are to the camera, the perspective, and in this case we know Monty sometimes made certain characters's parts bigger to add a sense of "Zoom in" in certain scenes.

So while X may look shorter than Y, it's hard to say if it actually is, because Y is from Real Life while X is fictional and size varies.

For example, the Goliaths. To me, they look as big as normal adult elephants from Real Life. Supposedly they are 20 stories tall more-or-less In-Universe.
