IDV Fletching - Blue

You wait silently in the bushes, your men scattered about in the boughs of the trees. Slowly the carriage trundles towards you, the guards are unaware and half asleep. They should know better, because this is your forest and you own this section of road.

The noble inside the carriage is fat and wealthy, a perfect target. You and your men will feast well this night upon what lies in the carriage’s coffers. You need only to fire your bow.

This Blue Fletching for Larp Arrows is designed by iDV Engineering, the leading archery crafters in the LARP industry. Created to match iDV flathead and round head arrows and bolts, this flexible blue elastomer fletching is a replacement in case of wear and tear on your original. Simply slide the rubber-like tube over the end of your arrow, adding a drop of adhesive if necessary.

iDV Fletching is designed to stabilize your arrow while in flight, preventing the arrow from turning and hitting the target with the shaft or nock--a very important safety measure! For this reason, a damaged or missing fletching must be replaced before an arrow can be used.

This deer will feed you for the rest of the week, so you are careful as you take aim. You mustn’t miss your target if you are to eat.

Forging ones own blade is an epic and noble undertaking. Fraught with problems of sourcing only the finest (and game legal) materials, we are now able to offer Epic Armoury's own cores. Strong, sturdy and felixble, when combined with Epic Armoury's plastazote foam these will form the basis of any melee weapon you could possibly wish to create.

Please note that these cores are not suitable for creating projectile weaponry.
Of Science & Swords and Epic Armoury carry no responsibility for injury or mishap that may occur as a result of attempting to create your own weaponry.

This Epic Armoury Glassfiber Core is one of our DIY products used to create your own Live Action Role Playing weapon, while still benefiting from the safety of an Epic Armoury blade. This 8mm Ø glass-fibre core is 80 cm long and is strong and flexible.

Directions for use:

There are multiple methods to creating a LARP weapon, but here are the basics! Carve closed-cell foam into your desired weapon shape and secure it around a clean and sanded Glassfiber Core. The glue will grip a sanded core better and improve durability of your new weapon. Remember to leave a safe amount of foam around the core in order to preserve its safety! When the shape you desire is achieved, dip the weapon into latex and allow to dry between layers for a smooth, protective surface.

Coat your latex equipment with a thin layer of silicone to prevent the surface from drying out, and to prolong the lifespan of your weapon. Always check your weapon for damage before and after each use. Wrap the handle with leather or cloth for a finished look.

Legend

How do you think that we, the Swiss people, were able to keep the peace in our lands, free from invaders and wars, through all the scarring conflicts of the Renaissance? While the French were fighting with straight swords, and southerners with curved ones, we had a great advantage: their blades never reached their foes. Our halberds kept the best knights at bay, and a simple battle formation could stop the most persistent riders.

The solution was really that simple. Put a longer shaft behind the blade, and you’ll stay alive longer. With our halberds, we will surely be able to keep the peace in our lands for centuries to come!

Workshop

Calimacil’s halberd head gets revamped! Safe as always with its almost indestructible foam, softer than regular Calimacil weapons, its appearance becomes more realistic than ever, with a forged metal texture and steel-coloured blade. Some silver highlights complete the illusion. It is possible to mount this halberd head on multiple shafts, like bamboo and PVC, so any character can be at home with one of these weapons.

Special thanks to Drakuler Dragon who suggested this name on our Facebook page.

Characters
