War Scythe - 23.6 in
Epic Armoury's War Scythe is a 23.6 in latex short axe carrying a 7.9 in blade, hand-painted throughout with wood-grain and metal finishes. The angled blade matches the realism of its traditionally shaped handle, ending in a deadly hook inspired both by weapons designed to rip through armor and by the farming tool it resembles.
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.
History
- Designed as a weapon against armored opponents at close range
- Considered an improvised weapon used by peasants in uprisings, whereas the blade would have been rotated to appear more spear-like
- Typically attached to a pole and used as a farming tool
