Bollock Dagger

Descrizione

You are a citizen of the Roman Empire, and a professional heavy infantryman of the Roman Army. You enlisted in your legion for twenty-five years of service, and you are both relieved and anxious to know you have only a few years left.

As you double-check your military-issued sword and Bollocks Dagger are securely in their holders, you feel prepared alongside your fellow soldiers to go into battle. You just hope that your training will continue to serve you well. At the very least, you have confidence in the sharpness of your weapon.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Bollocks Dagger is a two-edged dagger inspired by the versatile common folks’ knife of the Late Middle Ages. The 45 cm Bollocks Dagger has a narrow, 28 cm blade with a central ridge. The brass coloured oval crossguard with brown bollocks and brass pommel protect the 13 cm handle wrapped with black split leather.

Made from durable closed cell foam around a solid fibreglass 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 battlefield kit.
