"En Garde" traitor and prepare to taste the cold steel of my rapier! I've trained day and night for the last twenty years under the best Spanish disciples of Grand Master Aggripa for the sole reason of piercing your heart. One by one, I've tracked your associates and exacted the most furious of revenge upon them. Ahh, you finally understand... The fear that shows on your face is only the beginning of a long, painful journey, I promise you that.
A typical civilian weapon of the Renaissance, this rapier screams for the deft hands of a taunting duelist whose silvered tongue is as sharp as her blade. Musketeers, pirates and elven nobles will want to arm themselves with one to vanquish their adversaries with its superior speed and agility.This rapier, the first one manufactured by Calimacil, was designed with a special rod that grants great flexibility to the flat side of the blade while retaining a certain rigidity on the edges and tip. This allows safe thrusting and slashing attacks as well as parries. This original, innovative design for a thrusting weapon will revolutionize Live Action Role Playing, fencing practice and stage fighting.Material: GRP, foamTotal length: 107cmBlade length: 81cmWeight: 435gr

axes commonly used in Northern Europe in the olden days. This version's short variant allows wielding it even in the thick of battle. Notches on the axe head
as well as the handle's wood grain give "Daven" a realistic, well-used
character. In the "Black Dragon" series, Italian manufactory
Fucina
del Drago, famous for their exceptional leather products, have created a
foam weapon brand that combines traditional craftsmanship with a
fantastic design. The "Black Dragon" foam weapons are 100% handcrafted
in Italy. They feature an outer coat of latex varnished with a layer of
protective lacquer. Inserts of robust leather guarantee the necessary
stability and durability. Carefully painted and with boasting a
high-quality leather hilt wrapping, the "Black Dragon" foam weapon range
will be a trusty companion for a long time. Please note that each foam
weapon is individually crafted by hand, which is why the individual
weapons' shape and colour may deviate slightly from the image.We
recommend regular care with silicone oil. Keep your foam weapons clean
and dry at all times. Do not store them in a weapon's holder or similar
contraption for extended periods of time. Your foam weapon should not be
exposed to a lot of heat or direct sunlight for extended periods of
time. This could lead to deformations or damage to the surface.Material: foam, glass fibre reinforced plastic, latex, leatherLength: 70cmAxe head width: 19.5cmAxe head length: 12cmHandle length: 20cmWeight: approx. 250g Disclaimer: All items shown here

Life is action and it’s adventure! This second chance that’s been granted to us all is exactly what humanity needed to get up from its techno-couch and put that ginormous indolent butt into gear again. This forced « back to basics » with its multiple sources of dangers and mutant menaces is an incredible business opportunity for entrepreneurs like me! Who am I? Oh, nobody special really… Just a dream peddler. Guided by the wind, I break jaws and bones with The Dentist, my massive oaken studded club. Zombies, mutants, bandits or competitors, I make no particular distinction. I harvest their teeth and bone to make « authentic » shamanistic amulets. I sell them to travellers and the gullible members of communities I meet, convincing them that they bring some sort of mystical protection from the dangers of wilderness. Life is good, and The Dentist is there to insure I’ll retire rich. The Dentist is a very realistic reproduction of a studded club, which is perfectly suited to the context of our post-apocalyptic line of products. It is also quite appropriate for classical LARPers that seek an alternative to edged weapons. With its 32” length and one pound weight, it is well balanced for combat simulation. Like the rest of our weapons, it is very safe. Have no fear, no actual jaws were broken during the development of this club. While the Dentist has been developed for our post-apocalyptic line, its « natural » look makes it a more than adequate choice for Heroic Fantasy characters. The weapon is exactly suited for skull-crushing barbarian, highway bandits that don’t want to kill their victims and city guards. It is also a great choice for priests and other characters that have sworn not to spill the blood of others.Material: foam, fiberglasTotal length: 82cmStaff length: 65cmWeight: 435gr

In the midst an epic battle, Dorgen Largebellows crushed the skull of his enemy in a single swing. His hammer had once again brought down a foe. Raising his head - and beard - high, the warrior looked at what was left of the horde in front of him. He held his hammer high, threatening. In a moment, all were fleeing and he was left alone. Years before those events, the Dwarf had the great idea to forge himself a hammer fitting to his ambitions. He declared that this idea was a great one, and that they should wait and see the results. After months of hard work, he had the weapon to prove he was the greatest blacksmith, and ready for battle.

Hundreds of years ago, Elren’dar, the legendary sword, was lost. Once it was forgotten by all except the most ancient of the tomekeepers, an elven lord was able to solve the mystery of a scroll dating of the same era. Every sign was there: they would be able to recover the blade. He took his most trusted warriors and mages and went on a quest to find the holy relic.After years of terrible hardships, battles with unnamed beasts and through mountains, his company arrived on top of the greatest sacred tree of all. In a small alcove, created within the bark itself, lied the sword, waiting for a worthy successor. That’s how the blade was found, and how a new age began for the Elves.The Elren’dar II is a new version of the fantastic sword Elren’dar. Longer than its older counterpart, it enables more reach in battle, but every blow stays as safe as before thanks to the Calimacil foam. Moreover, its durability has been proven years after year. The colours of the weapon have been updated for a breathtaking realism. The handle, before gold and black, is now of a silver and piercing red, making the whole weapon a bit more discreet.Elves, natural users of this type of fine and light blades, will be delighted to hear that a new weapon has been forged just for them.

Created in collaboration between Calimacil and CD PROJEKT RED, we present Eredin's sword from The Witcher III: Wild Hunt. Everything about this sword gives it a unique character: a hilt with a complex asymmetrical design, scars of many old battles and a blade of varying width featuring a dangerous-looking spike. These elements come together to give this sword, wielded in the videogame The Witcher by Eredin Bréacc Glas, an incredibly intimidating look. Crafted and designed from original in-game assets, this foam replica is soft enough to ensure safe usage in mock combat, but firm enough for cosplay and prop usage. This savage-looking sword will complement the costume of a fallen holy warrior, a witch hunter, a savage barbarian, or the guard of a mighty lord.Material: GRP, Calimacil foamTotal length: 152 cmBlade length: 120Grip length: 24 cmWeight: ~ 720 gr.

Don’t ever underestimate Elves, son. What your impulsive, young eye sees as irrelevant carousing and carelessness hides a profound streak of sadness for a world they see decaying with each sunrise. What Elves sing and celebrate about when around Humans and Dwarves, they mourn when alone. For some, this sadness is too strong; they expiate it by throwing themselves against their enemies with no care for their lives. Among the most dangerous warriors to come from such desperate souls are the Forest Blades, pitiless fanatics armed with exceedingly deadly swords. They are as lethal as they are silent in the hands of those who have nothing to lose in a world they no longer consider theirs.This incredibly beautiful sword is another high quality achievement to come from the collaboration between Calimacil and Atelier Fantastic Art. This elven-inspired weapon is a masterpiece of unparalleled details. Its griffin-decorated pommel matches the sword’s metallic green guard. Its black handle molds itself to fit the wielder’s hands while its fine blade gives it an unequal appearance. Like all other blades issued from this exclusive partnership, this sword marries great attention for detail with it great utility as a perfectly balanced and safe weapon for LARPing.This sword is ideal for all kinds of elven character. It can arm a stealthy forest warrior that never leaves its cover in order to defend ancestral lands. It can also be used in a pair or along a dagger in the hands of a ranger who excels at two-weapon fighting.Material. Foam, fiberglasTotal length: 111cmBlade length: 81cmWeight: 500gr
