DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Cutlass is a latex-hybrid single-edged sword with a basket hilt. The sword is 85 cm long and has a 75 cm curved blade with a thicker tip designed to give it the chopping power necessary to dominate a bloody deck. The crossguard curves around the hand, protecting a 8 cm detailed grip cast and painted to look like real wood with metal rivets.

Whether you are a benevolent swashbuckler or pirate scallywag, this Cutlass is our highest quality gear due to its impressive durability and detail. The blade is made from closed cell foam around a fibreglass core and finished with a strong latex coating, while the handle is a polyurethane foam cast that allows for greater detail and no maintenance. This hybrid model sword will make you confident in the safety and appeal of your weapon on the battlefield.

HISTORY

• Traditionally used with a trident dagger, pistol or a belaying pin
• Commonly used as a naval weapon, it was designed to effectively slash enemies

Sure you could* use this to fasten rope around a fixed point on a yard arm, but it's much more effective as an improvised weapon to slug someone in near quarters.

*No, you couldn't. Please note that the Epic Armoury belaying pin is not a naval use device and is intended for roleplay purposes only.

You are part of a small group of men that have been secretly conspiring against your captain for weeks now. The time to act has come; the captain has grown suspicious and your chance to take control of the ship may slip away from you like badly secured rigging slipping through your hands during a storm.

You catch him standing alone on deck staring into the distant horizon. This has to be done quickly and quietly. You wallop your Belaying Pin swift and hard on the back of this poor bugger’s head before he can even scream: “Mutiny!”

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Belaying Pin measures 40 cm and is made from durable closed cell foam with a core of flexible tubing and finished with a strong latex coating. Hand painted and sculpted, this weapon appears to be made of real wood. Great impromptu LARP weapon for thumping skulls or for disciplining deck boys.
