Katanas, Scimitars and Sabres are among the most beautiful, most loved and most historically significant swords around. So, it’s no surprise that at nearly every LARP event, many people lament that no one makes curved swords. Those days are gone. Elysian Forge was created by a passionate team of LARPers in Canberra, Australia who figured out how to make reliable curved fibreglass cores, and magnificently detailed, expertly finished LARP weapons of all sorts, where an exotically shaped core would mean a more effective weapon. Our ever-expanding range of products include many curved swords such as the full size range of Japanese swords, Indo-Persian Shamshir, Indian Tulwar, European Sabre, Egyptian Khopesh, as well as “core-through-head” Axes, and more to come. The dark ages of LARP weapons being limited by straight cores is over. Welcome to the Elysian age of LARP weapons!

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.
