Are you looking for a custom LARP Weapon of your very own?
Please use the page below to get an idea of what kinds of options are available, and what kinds of weapons are possible! If you don’t see what you’re looking for, or want something kind of crazy, it can’t hurt to ask! Keep in mind the following:
LARP Weapons generally need to be straight blades. There are ways to fudge this (see the gallery for some of the more exotic options) and some special cores that can be used, but these all have pros and cons to consider. I am always happy to try a new and/or experimental process.
Electronics in LARP weapons, such as light or sound effects are something I am currently experimenting with. They are feasible, but might take some extra time and will certainly incur extra costs.
I can knock together a custom LARP weapon in a couple days, but I don’t always have the time on my schedule to do so. Please try to give me at least 2 or 3 weeks advance notice and take into account the time it may take to ship or deliver.
One of the best things you can do to give me an idea of whether your custom order is possible and what the costs may be is to provide reference pictures or sketches.
You may also request other foam construction pieces such as cosplay armor, masks, horns, shields, or other foam props.
Consider not just the shape and coloration, but other details as well, such as what kind of weathering, or wear and tear you might want simulated in the weapon. Was it made by a master craftsman or knocked together by goblins in the woods? Little details like scratches, repair bolts, metal plate patches, even leather wrapped segments or fur cuffs can give a weapon a tremendous amount of personality, and lend that extra bit of life to your LARP character.
