The Athena line, from Nemesis Workshops, is a mass produced line of high quality LARP weapons.

Athena is a new thermoforming manufacturing process that we have developed in order to offer high quality products at the cutting edge of technology. 

Thanks to this new process, Nemesis has taken the quality of their products to a higher level. Safer due to reinforced tips, durable due to quality materials and foam fusion during thermoforming, incredible balance due to the weighting system in the handles, flawless blades due to high precision molds, and daggers ready to parry due to a more robust fiberglass rod.

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.”

As you hear the ‘thwap!’ of an archer’s bow, you spin and dodge the incoming arrow, unsheathing your Elven Sword in one fluid motion. The fight has begun.

The short variant at 38cm long is suitable for a long dagger or dirk.

Many of the humans believe that greatness comes from shining armour and flashing swords, but they don’t respect the smaller, more important pieces of gear that every adventurer needs. This is why you’ve bargained with the best unseelie fae craftsman on the Fae Plane to create this finely wrought, sturdy Epic Black Illumine Sword Holder.

It may not be as impressive as a flaming sword, or as grand as a set of armour, but this simple and sturdy frog will carry you through centuries of mischief.

Made from black, vegetable-tanned, full-grain leather and stitched with durable thread around the edges, this weapon holder is built to keep its shape and withstand the abuse of a LARP with regular leather care.

The Illumine Sword Holder can be worn left- or right-handed by reversing the removable leather straps.

As an Adventurer, you never know who you might be working for or what beast you’ll be sent to dispatch next. There’s only one thing for certain: if there’s enough money or glory to be had, you’re the right person for the job.

Admittedly, when the farmer came running into town claiming his crops had been torched, you hadn’t anticipated a trap. By the time you realized that the farmer was luring you into a bandit ambush, they already had you captured. At least your Double Hanger kept your swords safe! Now, if you can just wiggle out of those ropes enough to grab a hilt…A bandit notices and takes your swords and your Double Hanger for himself.

You really need to rethink trusting farmers.

They have a cunning plan regarding the Spanish, m'lord!

The sword sits in the Musketeer Baldric hanging down from your shoulder, faithful to its master despite the challenges. It has been a long and dusty road, but that sword has remained at your side through it all.

As your infantry unit comes to a halt, there is the tension one always feels before the fight. You resist the anxiety, because the moment you step into battle all of that must fade away. It will be you fighting alongside your fellow soldiers, and it will be the sword hanging in your trusted baldric that keeps you alive.

Epic Armoury’s Musketeer Baldric offers more support than a standard waist belt as a way to carry your weapons. Using soft, but sturdy, suede leather, this baldric is both comfortable and durable. The belt strap is secured using a brass buckle painted to look weathered, while the scabbard is adjusted using leather ties and can be switched to either the right-hand or left-hand side. Almost any outfit will benefit from this authentic looking weapon holder, and at only 34.46 oz., it won’t burden your kit with unnecessary weight!
