Inhaling the crisp mountain air, you decide that today is a good day. With your Sun Hammer in hand, you look forward to finding the meanest, scariest beast in these foothills--and defeating it with much gusto.

In good humor you strike forth, whistling an old folk song. Some might think you insane. Maybe you are. But then, you rather prefer being called a dwarven berserker, instead.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Sun Hammer is a 135cm latex hammer uniquely designed to be safer and easier to wield in combat. The Sun Hammer’s 39cm long head is asymmetrical, featuring a flat 20cm wide face on one end and a spike on the other. The head is hollow, making it safer to use and more lightweight than a foam alternative. Sculpted and hand painted to look like dwarven forged metal, the head is attached to a similarly decorated haft and a 49cm black leather wrapped grip.

The haft is made from durable closed cell foam around a fibreglass core and finished with a strong latex coating. The head is made of strong, flexible latex with an interior foam rod to maintain its shape and keep the head attached to the haft. With regular latex maintenance, your LARP weapon will provide the safety and aesthetic appeal fitting an epic character for years to come.
