Dagger Holder - Black

This sheath is perfect for holding smaller knifes and daggers. Simple and elegant: the Dagger Holder is an excellent asset.

As an Adventurer, you never know who you might be working for or what beast you’ll be sent to dispatch next. There’s only one thing for certain: if there’s enough money or glory to be had, you’re the right person for the job.

Admittedly, when the farmer came running into town claiming his crops had been torched, you hadn’t anticipated a trap. By the time you realized that the farmer was luring you into a bandit ambush, they already had you captured. At least your Dagger Holder kept your dagger safe! Now, if you can just wiggle out of those ropes enough to grab the hilt…A bandit notices and takes your dagger and your Dagger Holder for himself.

You really need to rethink trusting farmers.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Dagger Holder is a leather hoop frog designed to keep your dagger handy and out of sight at all times. Thin split-leather has been added to the inside of each hoop to protect your belt and weapon, also providing just enough resistance to keep your dagger from falling out without making it difficult to withdraw.

Match this Dagger Holder with any character you wish to equip by securing the holder to your belt through the 7 cm belt loop. Made from chrome-tanned full-grain leather and stitched around the edges, this weapon holder is built to keep its shape and withstand the abuse of a LARP with regular leather care.

HISTORY

• Also referred to as a frog
• Historically used to hold the scabbard of an edged weapon vertically from the belt

A rondel dagger was a type of stiff-bladed dagger in Europe in the late Middle Ages, used by a variety of people from merchants to knights. It was worn at the waist and might be used as a utility tool, or worn into battle or a jousting tournament as a side-arm for the purpose of piercing chainmail.

Your Knight’s Code is one of valor, truth, and courage. You are tasked with defending the innocent and the weak, and today your oath is being tested. A dark knight has destroyed both your shield and sword during a duel, and he advances upon you.

This honorless fiend believes he has won, but you will not allow yourself to perish without taking this evil with you in the process. You grab for your Rondel Dagger still at your waist, and prepare to make a final desperate attempt to lodge the blade between the dark knight’s armour.

Let your god guide your hand...for you have only one chance.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Rondel Dagger is a solid dagger with a comfortable split-leather wrapped handle. The crossguard and pommel are rounded, designed as a basic interpretation of a knight’s “rondel dagger.” When fighting enemies in heavy plate armour, daggers like this would have been worn by a knight and forced between the joints.

Made from durable closed cell foam around a fibreglass core and finished with a strong latex coating, you can feel confident that your LARP weapon will provide the safety and appeal you want when crafting your authentic kit. Whether your business is running the realm, defending your homestead or backstabbing the higher-social classes, this multi-purpose tool is for you.
