Soldiers Halberd

The villagers had easily been dispatched. Their pathetic field scythes were no match for the Warriros of Chaos and their darkened shadow blades.

However this was merely have meant to have been a raid, and they did not reckon on the auxilliary soldiers showing up with real weapons that had real reach, such as the soldiers and the steel halberds.

STAND FAST AND DEPLOY HALBARDS!

Epic Armoury’s Soldier's Halberd is a 190 cm latex poleaxe inspired by a weapon used during the late medieval period. The Halberd’s axe-like head has a 36 cm blade for chopping, a long spear for piercing, and a claw-like spike for grappling. The axe-head is specially reinforced to make the weapon durable and versatile. Handpainted and sculpted to appear realistic, detailed metal and bolts run along the pole, with a sheen that makes it appear like polished steel.

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.
