Guardian - 85 cm

Epic Armoury’s Guardian is a high-fantasy latex war hammer with rich, sculpted and hand-painted detailing. The Guardian’s head is 9 cm wide, with a 15x15 cm face designed to deliver a fatal blow to your enemies. An 8 cm claw-like spike serves as the peen of the hammer, opposite the face. Sculpted and hand-painted, the head of this hammer appears fitted to the haft through a jeweled metal bar. This detailed metal attaches to the steel-colored haft and the 12 cm handle wrapped in chrome tanned suede leather for a comfortable and secure grip.

Made from durable closed cell foam around a fiberglass 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.

As the entire latex sword is hand-painted, the jewel color varies between blue, red, green, purple, or black. The metal band’s color varies between gold, silver, or bronze.
