Imperial Sword Holder

A premium leather holster for your blade as you march about in formation, the Imperial sword holster has adjustable straps allowing you to place almost any of Epic Armoury's amazing weapons in it.

It is available in four distinctly known world conquering colours.

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 Imperial Swordholder kept your sword safe! Now, if you can just wiggle out of those ropes enough to grab the hilt…A bandit notices and takes your sword and your Imperial Swordholder for himself.

You really need to rethink trusting farmers.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Imperial Swordholder is a simple way to carry your weapon on your waist belt while adding detail and authenticity to your overall outfit. Using full-grain leather with a vegetable-tanned finish, this swordholder is versatile and attractive. Adjustable to the size of the weapon or scabbard with its split-leather cord, this swordholder is a perfect addition to your costume.

Whether you are reenacting a great battle, or simply need a way to store one of your rogue’s many swords, this is an essential piece of gear for any fighter on the field.

HISTORY

• Also referred to as a “frog”
• Historically used to hold the scabbard of an edged weapon vertically from the belt

Never go into battle before first tasting your favorite ale. That is the advice you would give any of your fellow Dwarves, for you never know when this may be your last fight.

You slam your Beer Mug onto the table as you await the finest dark ale you know. The tavern was quiet before you walked inside, tense with the anticipation of a coming war, but you are loud and bring life back to its walls. You raise a toast to the barkeep and to any nearby, granting them glory on the battlefield before drinking deeply from your mug.

It would be a true shame to leave this world while thirsty.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Beer Mug with Metal Bands is a throwing weapon handy for impromptu fights against other midnight boozers. The beer mug is cylindrical, standing 20 cm tall with a 18 cm diameter. The mug is carved with a wood texture and coloured brown to resemble the staves of a cask, rimmed with riveted metal-hoops. The hoops connect to the metal-coloured handle which is 8 cm deep, leaving plenty of room for grip. The inside is coloured black, mimicking a dark wax typically found on the inside of wooden mugs.

Made from coreless durable closed cell foam and finished with a strong latex coating, you can feel confident that this Beermug will provide the safety and appeal you want when crafting your kit.

HISTORY

• Also called a “tankard,” which originally referred to any wooden drinking vessel
• Similar to the earliest form of a tankard, which did not have a lid and resembled a barrel
• Earliest form has been found from as far back as 2000 years ago

PLEASE NOTE: Unless your local game specifically allows hand to hand combat these are for appearance only and should NOT be used for direct physical contact.

The vast wastelands are dangerous, and so you are armed to the teeth. Guns, knives, and even a chainsaw are kept handy should the specific need arise to use them. Your favourite, however, is your Knuckleduster.

The little piece of metal fits so perfectly in your hand that it goes undetected. It’s a dangerous secret you keep from your enemies, and the reason you will survive while others might not.

DETAILS

Dark Moon’s Knuckleduster is a realistic looking knuckle duster designed to be used as a throwing weapon in a post-apocalyptic world. The Knuckleduster is sculpted and handpainted to look like heavy metal and leather, and its 14 cm width fits great in your hand. The grip is created by two large holes, each designed to slide your fingers through.

It is not advised to use this weapon for hand-to-hand combat. Made from coreless durable closed cell foam and finished with a strong latex coating, you can feel confident that this Knuckleduster will provide the safety and appeal you want when crafting your LARP kit.

HISTORY

• Knuckledusters are designed to create more damage when punching
• A form of knuckle style weapon has been around since ancient times
• By the late 19th century, knuckledusters became incorporated into firearms

Sneaking through the bandit’s hideout, you pause as a particular chest catches your eye. A true adventure always comes with its fair share of loot, you think, as you inspect for traps. All seems well as you start to pick the lock, wondering what sort of treasure the bandits might be hiding.

The lid opens with an awful creak--you’re sure someone will have heard it!--and as you look inside you are excited to find the entire chest full of stolen coins and gems. You don’t have much time as you scoop several handfuls into your Ready-for-Battle Purse, thanking the fact that your bag is big enough to carry so much, before you jingle toward the exit.

It’s about time something good came out of this journey!

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Ready-for-Battle Purse is a moderately sized cloth purse designed to hold coins or other personal keepsakes. The round bottomed purse is made from medium cotton and is tied shut with a cotton cord drawstring. The same drawstring is long enough that it can be tied to your belt in order to keep it close at hand.

The RFB Purse can carry a lot thanks to its 12 cm radius at full extension. Store anything that will fit inside its 23 cm length. Cloth purses are useful accessories and great for adding final touches to your character.

HISTORY

• Historically referred to and used like a “pocket” before pockets were added to clothing
• Pouches worn at the belt have been found in Swedish and English burial sites pre-dating 1000 A.D.

One belt not holding up your chainmail pants?

TRY TWO!

The street is a hard place to conduct business, but it’s a way of life you’ve become very good at keeping. Two coppers jingle in the pouch hanging from your Twin Belt, but by the end of the day you’re determined to increase the lot to a gold or two. A good card game and a poor ol’ sap is all it takes.

On your way to your regular spot you pass a lovely lady in a fine dress. You may be a ruffian, but with your candid smile you give the lady a tip of your fanciful top hat. She looks flattered, which is a good distraction...because now you’ve got a silver to add to the copper in your pouch.

DETAILS

This bestselling Epic Armoury Twin Belt is a stylish and durable leather belt fashioned from two slimmer belts merged into one. Made from two buffalo-leather straps and stitched together by leather braces in an ornate pattern, this belt has a truly medieval look.

The two braces are fitted with brass D-rings for attaching or suspending bags and other equipment. Usable by a large variety of shapes and sizes due to its long 40 cm belt-tongues and nine punched holes, this belt is a perfect solution for anyone’s kit. With its simple style and rings, the belt is both functional and stylish, and can be used by lords or peasants--no matter race or culture.

Available in Brown, Black, Red, Blue, and Green. One size fits all.

HISTORY

• Historically made from cut lengths of leather sewn together
• Belts have been documented for male clothing since the Bronze Age between 3200–600 B.C.
• More commonly a male fashion item, with the exception of the Middle Ages
