Legend
As the patriarch of the clan, he will not bow down to anything or anyone who attempts to raid his village. He might look old with his silver beard, scarred face and furrowed brow, but his stark blue eyes are flinty and intimidating. The many scars that mars his body show how stalwart and steady he’s been through his long life as a warrior.
“Today is no different”, he thinks staring angrily at the monstrous horned figure that emerges from the mist between the longhouse and the road beyond. As he places his hand on the pommel of his trusty Dreki Sword hanging from his belt, the action emboldens him and fills him with strength. In true Stalwart manner he decides that an insult is the proper way to get this fight going. “Vel kominn, elskar af geitr!” he roars…
Description
Behold the Stronghold Dreki Sword: Sea serpents, dire-wolves and competing Vikings will not stand a chance!
This splendid 40 inch sword has a 26 inch fullered blade designed to be lightweight while maintaining its structural stability. Made from EVA foam surrounding a fiberglass core and finished with strong and impressive paintwork, this sword is just as soft as any latex coated weapon but even more sturdy in battle, and is another significant member to join the Stronghold line!
The steel crossguard features an elaborate serpent-like embellishment, and the handle is cast and painted to look like realistic hardwood with a crescent steel pommel at the bottom.
The Dreki Sword is part of the Stronghold line of products from Epic Armoury, and is high quality gear due to its impressive durability and magnificent details. This sword will make you confident in the safety and appeal of your LARP weapon on the battlefield, whether you are a glorious Viking or a headhunting Celt.
Due to the density of the blade, there is a chance of paint being rubbed off due to the friction caused when the blade and another dry surface makes contact. To mitigate this, we advise you to coat the blade with a thin layer of silicone, which will reduce the friction and in turn stress on the paint.
Available in steel or gold.
