Footman's Mace

Footmans Mace

Epic Armoury’s Footman’s Mace is a low-fantasy latex weapon designed to intimidate armoured knights on the battlefield. The mace is 31.5 in with a small 4.1 in long flanged head designed to penetrate chainmail and plate alike. Each of the six flanges is 3.1 in long and V-shaped, realistically sculpted to appear riveted. The haft is hexagonal with sculpted and handpainted iron bands to serve as optional grips and structural support. Top-grain leather wraps around the 7in handle, giving this mace an exceptionally durable grip.

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

• Flange would have been designed to penetrate armour
• Maces were first designed to cause harm without penetrating armour due to the force of their blows
• Commonly made of iron, but also occasionally copper and bronze
