The HoH armory

Postby Ahearn Condon on Fri Oct 31, 2008 10:20 pm

This is a sample of the weapons I've got hanging around my house *coughtakinguphalfmyvancough* and eventually i'll put more and more pics up until i get them all done. Most of the weapons that'll be shown are mine, but i do keep most of my friends boffers in my possession as well, so they'll end up here also.

We'll start with the DreadBlade, not one of my own weapons actually. Its just under 6 feet long
Image

And the Gudentag, one of mine and is just about 5 feet long.
Image

My rapier, my prefered weapon and what i use most often. Its got a curved hilt which not only makes it easier to fight with using the style i do, but it makes it just alittle trickier to block when your not prepared.
Image

My bow, though it can be used to fight with as a club, it doesn't see much use outside of LARPs
Image

My dagger, just under 2 feet long its got a pretty intricate handgaurd. But i found it particularly hard to get a decent picture of it to show it off fully.
Image


My Cudgel, emblazened with St. Cuthbert's symbol just under the head is what i used to use to fight hammers and other such weapons.
Image

And then theres my hammer. Modeled after another hammer that made itself its own legacy through how long it was used and how many fights it won. Eventually it was retired and this hammer was made in its honor.
Image

My Dire ScrimaSeax, originally the first flatblade weapon we had, a long sword. The PVC broke after a year or so of heavy use and the weapon was cut down into what it is now. just over 2 feet long.
Image

A simple short sword, just under 2 feet long. Also my first attempt at a baskethilt.
Image

My first ultralight dagger, made for but as of yet been used in a LARP.
Image

A short sword, just under 2 feet long, made based off of a religious symbol for one of the Gods in the LARP I participate in.
Image

One of my friend's, Torben's, Scrimaseax. Based off of the old Norse weapon by that name.
Image

Two ArmGaurds made to fight against sheild users. Designed realizing the advantages of the sheild, but finding such large things as the 36 inch rounds and heater sheilds to be unhonorable the ArmGaurds were made to be sheilds based on dexterity so that you still had to be more then just average in skill to get the same defense you do out of a larger shield.
Image

And my other hammer, this ones made to be used as more of a hafted weapon the the previous hammer shown. And has a much larger head, making it hit solid, but still not hurt.
Image

1st of several ultralight longswords i've got and will post.
Image

2nd
Image

3rd
Image

4th
Image

and back to the PVC one-handers, the scimitar to start. This one being Torben's, made to make close in fighting easier with the curved blade.
Image

The Naganata, I've got two of these, both identical so i'll just put one of them up.
Image

And the Butterfly Sword, made for someone who is now my ex. Apparently some people just don't see the thought in making someone a custom boffer. :( haha And yes, it is what it looks like, a purple sword with blue butterflys around the blade. Inverse on the pommel.
Image

Don't know what to call this thing, Haven't figured that out yet. But its a fun weapon to fight with. Also my heaviest (saying something since my training boffer has steel rebar in the core).
Now can you guess how you actually weild it? haha
Image

Image

And two things that can't actually be used legally to fight with. But are still really cool boffers, atleast in my opinion.
First the Lyre
Image

and my favorite, the Violin
