Kings Guard Halberd 74.8 in

King Guard Halberd 

Epic Armoury’s Kingsguard Halberd is a 174.8in latex poleaxe inspired by a weapon commonly used during the late medieval period. The Kingsguard Halberd’s axe-like head has a 22in blade for chopping, a long spear for piercing, and a claw-like spike for grappling. The axe-head is hand painted and sculpted to appear realistic, detailed with golden carved vines to give it a rich, royal appearance.

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