Sword Belt Laced

”Care for your equipment, and it will care for you.” Of the many maxims adventurers like to spew out, you’ve found that this saying has always resonated with you. It’s saved your life on a few occasions, after all.

Simple, sturdy, and reliable will win the day. Your Sword Belt, fastened securely at your waist, is all three of those things.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Sword Belt offers more versatility and support than a standard waist belt as a means to carry your sword. Using braided full-grain leather, this belt is both durable and attractive and is designed so that your sword’s weight will be more evenly distributed while resting on the hip. The belt strap is secured using a brass buckle around the waist, while a second leather strap hangs around the hip. This second strap is adjustable to the left or right hip, and features D-rings, hooks, and a brass loop as viable options from which to hang your scabbard or naked sword--whatever its size.

Made from top-grain leather and embellished with intricate braiding to give it a rugged look, this Sword Belt is a great addition to a variety of character costumes. This authentic looking belt and weapon holder will last for a long time with proper leather care.

HISTORY

• Double wrapped belts were especially popular during the medieval times
• Designed to balance the weight on both hips, creating a more comfortable fit

The toll of looking this darn good is that people stare at you everywhere you go. Striding down the street on your beautiful, but sturdy mare, the townsfolk eye you as one might a king--or at the very least, a very rich lord.

Can you blame them? You are decorated in your Corrazina, a piece of armour so regal you might as well be royalty. Let them look in awe! Just don’t let them get their peasant hands all over the fine suede.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Green Corrazina is a beautiful low-fantasy piece of armour protecting the front and back of the torso and abdomen. The plate rests at the waist and is sculpted to fit the body and add structural strength to the steel. This steel riveted piece has been covered with a luxurious and soft layer of green suede leather, giving it a particularly rich appearance.

The Corrazina is constructed using multiple metal plates in order to bend comfortably around the body, and is further adjusted to fit your torso using top-grain leather straps at the shoulders, sides, and along the front. It is fully usable with Epic Armoury’s other metal work products, giving you the freedom to customize your character’s costume. Made of 1 mm thick galvanized mild steel, suede leather, and top-grain leather straps and fittings, this armour piece is built to withstand the abuse of a LARP or reenactment with regular leather and metal armour care.

HISTORY

• Corrazina armour was a style of armour where metal plates were fastened to leather or fabric
• Sometimes referred to as the Brigantine style

“The peasant rebel was well-armed and brave, but the experienced officer surprised him by swiftly drawing his rapier in an agile stance. The ornamented hilt gleamed during the deadly dance that followed. The rebel lunged forward but halted to defend himself from a deceiving thrust that pierced his wrist. A wound of finesse that already had decided the outcome of the duel. The officer stoically stood his ground, awaiting the decision of his opponent. Either he would surrender or succumb to his rage and die.”

Epic Armoury’s hybrid range Rillet Rapier is a delicate sword inspired by 16th and 17th-century designs. This model features an elegantly leaf-curved quillon and guard, a filigree ornamented chappe and pommel, and a grooved handle. The blade comprises a fibreglass core embedded in closed-cell ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) foam coated with pigmented latex. For those playing high-ranking noble characters in settings inspired by the Renaissance, this is an elegant weapon for a more civilised age.

"I will yearn for your safe return," she whispered softly, her voice filled with sorrow. The melancholic rain dripping through the leafy canopy overhead provided the only response to our unspoken understanding. With a gentle touch, she traced the woven patterns of my shoulder armour, delicately placing a small rose into the weave. A symbol of love. Battles and conflicts lay ahead, but within this glade, time seemed to stand still, and I could have gladly lost myself in the depths of her eyes for an eternity."

The Ranger Shoulder Armour from Epic Armoury offers stylish shoulder protection from a combination of plain and diagonal-weaved leather pieces. Made of full-grain leather, it provides a smooth texture and sophisticated appearance. An adjustable braid-cord-piece connects the shoulder pieces with several spike-aglet strings used to attach the shoulder armour to a torso armour. The pieces are designed to pair perfectly with other items in the Ranger Complete Armour Set, but they can, if desired, also be applied to other types of torso armour.
