Epic Armoury’s Sleipnir Iarla Shield is a 80 cm round latex shield that will be your companion to Hel and back. You fear no heroic and dangerous quest with your Iarla Shield at your side! Inspired by early Vikings and Saxons, this Live Action Role Play (LARP) safe shield is carved from EVA foam to look like true wood. Coated in a layer of durable latex, it features a wood grain texture on both the front and back--something that makes this shield truly unique and perfect for a truly immersive look. You can even find small sculpted nails hammered into the braces, because attention to detail is so important.
This shield has been hand painted, with white and black stripes and a ring of red Norse-inspired horses decorating its face. Its slight convex shape and the metallic-painted boss on the front provides an edge in combat, and its reliable punch-grip fits comfortably in your hand thanks to its suede wrap and shape. Keep your shield in great condition with regular latex maintenance.
The Best of All Horses
- Iarla is the Irish word for ‘Earl,’ which makes it perfect for higher ranking warriors in your tribe
- Sleipnir was an eight-legged horse ridden by Odin in Norse mythology, and in some stories it was responsible for carrying the dead to the otherworld
- The Shield Boss--the round, convex piece of material at the centre of the shield--was used to deflect blows
- Round wooden style was predominantly used in the early European Middle Ages using light, non-splintering wood such as linden, fir, alder or poplar
You became a ruler during war time, and so you feel more at east with the Earl Sword in your hand than the feathered quill you now use to write a long and tiresome letter. The sword, with its beautiful craftsmanship, now sits polished over the mantel.
Your gaze turns to that sword now, gleaming in the firelight. In times of peace one should never hope for conflict, but you find yourself craving the thrill of one last fight.
DETAILS
Stronghold’s Earl Sword is a medium sword inspired by celtic designs. The sword is 76 cm long and has a 57 cm double-edged blade with a central ridge. The detailed handle--with its celtic inspired crossguard and pommel--features a handpainted finish that looks like faded bronze. The 10 cm grip is cast and painted to look like cherrywood, ergonomically shaped to fit the hand.
Stronghold weapons are foam weapons designed for tough combat at LARPs. They require no maintenance, unlike latex weapons, and feature detailed polyurethane handles.
This Stronghold blade is crafted using a unique Epic Foam that weighs the same as latex without requiring the constant upkeep. Additionally, the blade tip is stab-proof thanks to our new innovative construction. Lightweight and shaped with a realistic and cushioned edge, this weapon is designed to be safe--leaving your friends unbruised and unbroken!
INSPIRATION
- Celtic knots, called ‘icovellavna,’ are most known for their use in Christian documents and monuments after the 7th century
- The interwoven cords in an icovellavna are called ‘plaits’
The finest closed cel foam weapons on the battlefield!
This bestselling Epic Armoury Maintenance Silicone is used for maintenance of Live Action Role Playing foam weapons and equipment covered with latex and/or varnish.
Directions for use:
Latex equipment must be coated with a thin layer of silicone at all times. This prevents the surfaces from drying out, and will prolong the lifespan of your latex equipment. Always check your latex equipment before and after each use. Spray the silicone directly onto your latex product and work it into the entire surface (avoiding leather handles) either with a piece of cloth or using a flat hand. If necessary, wipe off any excess with a dry cotton cloth. Always store your latex equipment in a dry and dark place.
