Problem solved.
You wake from an awful nightmare. You were traveling through the ancient forest, hunting an orc tribe pillaging on your land. You and your fellow scout were spotted by the enemy...but as you reached for your sword, you found that it was missing!
Phew. Thankfully it was just a dream. You have an Elven Holster Hook, after all. Your sword is always safely in your sword belt.
DETAILS
Epic Armoury’s Epic Black Elven Holster Hook is a clever tool that keeps your elven latex sword from falling through your weapon holder. Epic Armoury elven swords are designed without crossguards in order to achieve a sleek appearance, which can make it difficult to stay in your sword holder, or frog. We’ve created the Elven Holster Hook as a simple solution. Simply tie the Holster Hook around your weapon’s grip, and you will find that it will now rest inside your holder like any normal sword without sacrificing the unique look of your weapon.
Made from black durable leather and leather cord stitching, this hook is built to keep its shape and withstand the abuse of a LARP with regular leather care. With an elegant appearance, it will match any elven or imperial weapon nicely. Pair it with one of our swords without a crossguard, or on a weapon that has a bad habit of freeing itself from your belt.
HISTORY
- A weapon holder is also referred to as a frog
- Crossguards weren’t necessarily used even on historical weapons--becoming more popular after 10th century Europe
- Elves were originally a creation of Germanic mythology and folklore
Your Elven ears hear the rustle of footsteps behind you. A smile crosses your delicate lips as you realize a stranger is attempting to sneak up on someone as lithe and alert as you. You are the kindred of the immortals, having honed your skills for hundreds of years. No normal mortal being can surprise you.
“Come out of hiding,” you call over your shoulder. “I know you are there.”
Again your Elven Ears pick up the faintest noise, and as you hear the ‘thwap!’ of an archer’s bow, you spin and dodge the incoming arrow. It appears some lesser creature is about to receive an important lesson about attacking an elf as powerful as you.
DETAILS
Epic Armoury’s slender Elven Dagger was made to match the Elven Sword series. Slim and simple, the weapon has a lean, slightly curved blade. It has no cross-guard, but does have a fine coreless pommel. The handle wrapped in durable split-leather accommodates a firm, comfortable grip while on the battlefield. Made from durable closed cell foam around a fibreglass core and finished with a strong latex coating, you can feel confident that your LARP weapon will provide the safety and appeal you want when crafting your Elven-inspired kit.
INSPIRATION
- Elves were originally a creation of Germanic mythology and folklore
- Lean and elegant style of blade inspired by high-fantasy genre games such as Dungeons & Dragons and J.R.R. Tolkein’s Lord of the Rings series
- Curved design inspired by scimitars is especially effective for slashing (instead of stabbing) in combat
- Product number: 10158-2
