Footman Sword

Footman Sword

Epic Armoury’s Footman Sword is a medium latex-hybrid sword inspired by medieval weapons and fantasy lore alike. The sword is featured in 85 and 110 cm length and has a 62 cm blade with a long fuller. The crossguard features a subtle curved design that protects a 13 cm grip. This grip, wrapped in full grain leather, is ergonomic and ends with a “scent stopper” pommel. The 110 cm long sword has a ricasso that elongates the sword while leaving the same blade length.

Whether you are a common soldier or a secluded wanderer, this Footman Sword is one of our highest quality products due to its impressive durability and detail. The blade is made from closed cell foam around a fiberglass core and finished with a strong latex coating, while the handle is a polyurethane foam cast that allows for greater detail and no maintenance. This hybrid model sword will give you confidence in the safety and appeal of your weapon on the battlefield.
