Battle Scythe - 190 cm

Battle Scythe

Epic Armoury’s Battle Scythe is a 190 cm latex poleaxe inspired by war or military scythes. Featuring a curved, single-edged 45 cm blade and a long wood-like staff, this hand-painted and sculpted scythe is a weapon for any mercenary, revolutionary, or dangerous farmer. Small sculpted details, like grommets attaching the blade to the staff, give this poleaxe a particularly realistic look.

Made from durable closed cell foam around a fiberglass core and finished with a strong latex coating, you can feel confident that your Battle Scythe LARP weapon will provide the safety and appeal you want when crafting your kit.

History
