Warhammer - 33.5 in
Epic Armoury's Warhammer is an 33.5 in latex war hammer drawing on late medieval weapon design. This particular head is slightly enlarged with a smaller spike, tuned for fantasy styling while keeping LARP safety in mind. The octagonal striking face measures 2.8 in from the haft, paired with a 3.9 in claw-like spike. Hand-painted, sculpted detail gives it the look of worn dark wood, and the 7.9 in handle is wrapped in brown leather for a superior grip.
Closed cell foam over a fiberglass core, finished in a strong latex coating, gives this LARP weapon the safety and appeal you want for your kit.
