Should you fall, it will only be after you’ve taken many of their own warriors--your glorious weapon in hand.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Falcata is a single-edged latex medium sword inspired by weapons used by the ancient Iberian mercenaries. The blade is shaped to act like both an axe head and thrusting sword, delivering powerful blows, while still stabbing and jabbing like the best of them. The Falcata is handmade and hand painted to look like real steel, wood, and gold embellishments--while being made from safe, soft foam. The 10 cm grip at the end of the Falcata is realistically molded and hooked around the hand, much like the traditional weapon..

The blade is made from durable closed cell foam around a solid 8 mm fibreglass core, built to keep you safe! It is finished with a strong latex coating. The grip is a polyurethane cast that requires no maintenance, meaning you’ll enjoy using this sword at your LARP game for many seasons!
