Epic Armoury Hybrid - Stronghold Elven Hunter Blade Sword - 30in - LARP

IMPORTANT - SYSTEM COMPATIBILITY

These 'Epic Armoury Hybrid' weapons have a pommel and crossguard made from polyurethane foam. They are more durable than standard foam and latex, but harder than traditional LARP weapons. The blade of the 'Stronghold' weapons are  made from traditional soft foam and coated with a low-maintenance latex, that is rougher and more durable.

Please bear this in mind and check the safety rules for your LARP system carefully before purchasing. Returns will not be accepted for hybrid weapons that do not pass individual weapons check requirements. These do not pass safety at the Lorien Trust, Curious Pastimes or Profound Decisions events.

However, they are still excellent for cosplay, theatrical and film purposes and any LARP that does not require soft foam on the pommel.

DETAILS

Stronghold’s Elven Hunter Blade is a medium sword inspired by creatures who dwell in the feywild. The sword is 75 cm long and has a 53 cm gracefully curved blade designed for slicing. The detailed handle features a handpainted finish that looks like faded gold wrapped around polished ashwood. The 15 cm grip is cast with a woodgrain texture and is ergonomically shaped, grooved to fit the hand.

Stronghold weapons are foam weapons designed for tough combat at LARPs. They require no maintenance, unlike latex weapons, and feature detailed polyurethane handles.

This Stronghold blade is crafted using a unique Epic Foam that weighs the same as latex without requiring the constant upkeep. Additionally, the blade tip is stab-proof thanks to our new innovative construction. Lightweight and shaped with a realistic and cushioned edge, this weapon is designed to be safe--leaving your friends unbruised and unbroken!
