Brass Compass with Leather Pouch

After hours of outrunning bandits, you are now deep within the woods--much further than you have ever gone before. You’ve got a purse full of coin and a magic sword at your side, but neither will be very helpful if you cannot find your way back to civilization.

Thankfully you have your compass attached to your belt. With it you can guide yourself south. You should hit a road eventually if you keep walking that way...at least you hope so. Maybe you should have remembered to bring a map.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Compass with Leather Pouch is a working brass compass embellished with white cardinal directions and degrees on a black background. The outer brass casing is 5 cm in diameter with a ring hanger where you can attach a chain or leather cord.

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.

Throwing knives are an invaluable additional to any LARPers arsenal.
With many different styles, Epic Armoury throwing knives are made from durable foam that can survive being trod on and come in many different styles to suit your character.

NOTE: Some of the throwing knife designs have been discontinued, some re-continued. If the design is out of stock, we may not be able to get it in again so please check with us for any backorders.

You hold your Throwing Knife between your teeth, keeping it handy while your hands are busy picking a noble’s unguarded luggage. Leaving anything valuable without a guard is like an invitation to steal it...at least that’s been your experience.

With a satisfying ‘click!’ the lock comes undone and you pry the chest open to reveal--oh, yes! That will do nicely. You pocket what looks to be a sizeable purse and a few interesting looking weapons, before carefully replacing the lock and sneaking out of the tent undetected.

HISTORY

• Designed to resemble a “balanced knife,” which is preferred by most Western traditions
• Knife throwing was first used in martial arts and hunting before it became a sport
• Throwing a knife was always considered a risk in martial arts, because an unsuccessful attack would leave you without a weapon while arming your attacker

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.

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

As you consider ways you might be able to afford some meat--maybe you can do some work for a merchant in town?--there’s an anxious knock on the door.

“Raiders!” shouts the messenger on your doorstep. “Raiders are coming! Every able person is being called to fight!”

Suddenly an empty belly is the least of your worries.

A rectangular box of hardneed leather suitable for carrying valuables into the thick of the field.

just try not to fall over on top of it. The bag will win that one.

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 Imperial Leather Bag, 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!

It is locked by pushing a brass knob through the front leather strap, and is attached to the belt using the two leather straps on the back.

The Imperial Leather Bag is made from vegetable-tanned, full-grain leather and is stitched around the edges to ensure a product that will withstand the abuse of a LARP or reenactment. The bag is low-fantasy, fully compatible with other Epic Armoury items, and can go with almost any character or universe you care to imagine.

HISTORY
