Halbard - 190 cm Epic Armoury’s Halberd is a 74in latex poleaxe inspired by a weapon used during the late medieval period. The Halberd’s axe-like head has a 13.7in blade for chopping, a long spear for piercing, and a claw-like spike for grappling. The axe-head is specially reinforced to make the weapon durable and versatile. Hand-painted and sculpted to appear realistic, detailed metal and bolts run along the pole, which is carved to appear like worn wood. 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. HISTORY Prominent during the 14th- and 15th centuries Term comes from the German words Halm (staff) and Barte (axe) Typically designed to keep mounted troops at a distance, but was considered versatile Spikes were added to the hammer’s head to grapple mounted opponents
