an orthopedic grip improves a rapiers thrust but comes at the expense of the speed and power of it's cut. The grip is more of a revolver grip, and the weapon itself doesn't have a bladed edge at all. It looks more like a lance that extends to become a whip with a pull of the trigger, which it also has.
