Mallet

The latex wood mallet is a typical tool that any manual worker of the time would own. It could be used to assault or render someone unconscious. It could be used as a means to build, repair or demolish and passes inconspicuously amongst the town folk.

Raiders are coming. They are heading straight for your village. As you wait alongside the guards outside the gate, one of them gives you a funny look. You are a carpenter by trade--not a fighter--and the only weapon you could find to defend your home was a Mallet.

Still, you’ve got a strong arm and a lot of determination. There won’t be enough guards to protect your family, and you plan on giving the raiders a hard time if they plan on making trouble.

DETAILS

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 kit.
