Inspirations: From History to Fantasy

Throwing weapons have been a cornerstone of combat across cultures and ages, symbolizing innovation and strategy on the battlefield. From the warriors of ancient Europe to the assassins of far-off lands, these weapons carry a legacy of precision and ingenuity.

Historical Origins: Throwing axes, like the Norse francisca, were favored by Viking raiders for their ability to disrupt enemy formations before closing into melee combat. Meanwhile, throwing knives were staples of stealth and survival across many cultures, their simplicity and efficiency making them indispensable tools.
Fantasy Legends: In the world of fantasy, throwing weapons have become icons of skill and cunning. From the expertly aimed daggers of rogues to the mystical power of enchanted shurikens, these weapons embody the idea of a swift, decisive strike. Their versatility inspires countless tales, adding depth to the characters who wield them.

At Epic Armoury, we draw from these rich histories and stories to create foam throwing weapons that honor their origins while meeting the needs of today’s adventurers.

Choosing the Right Throwing Weapon for You

The right throwing weapon depends on your needs and style as an adventurer. Consider the following when making your choice:

Throwing knives and daggers offer precision and are perfect for stealthy characters or quick, strategic attacks. Their sleek design makes them versatile tools, easily carried and concealed.

Throwing axes, such as the francisca, bring a heavier impact and are ideal for bold warriors looking to disrupt enemies before engaging in close combat. Their design often adds a rugged, historical flair to any character.

For those venturing into fantasy realms, mystical designs like enchanted orbs or throwing stars provide a touch of magic and mystery, complementing sorcerers, assassins, or any character with a fantastical edge.

Think about how your weapon will be used—quick throws during combat, theatrical displays at Ren Faires, or as part of a meticulously crafted cosplay ensemble. Matching your weapon to your character’s narrative and your event’s needs ensures the perfect choice for your adventure.

Imaginative Inspiration: A Strike in Time

Picture this: you crouch behind a ruined wall, your hand gripping a throwing knife as you gauge the distance to your target. The battlefield is alive with shouts and clashing steel, but your focus is unwavering. With a flick of your wrist, the blade arcs through the air, striking true and shifting the tide of the encounter.

Or imagine yourself at a grand feast, a throwing axe displayed prominently on your belt. A fellow reveler challenges you to a friendly contest, and the crowd gathers as you step up, confident in your skill. The axe flies from your hand, embedding itself in the target with a satisfying thud, and the cheers of the onlookers remind you why you carry this symbol of precision and power.

In every story, a throwing weapon is more than a tool—it’s a moment, a decision, a testament to your character’s resourcefulness and bravery.

Cleaning: Wipe off dirt or residue after use with a damp cloth to maintain their appearance and integrity.
Storage: Keep your throwing weapons in a cool, dry place to prevent unnecessary wear or deformation.
