Description
If you are looking for a dagger to slide through the joints of armor with ease, then your best choice is the Stiletto Dagger. In addition to its sleek deadliness, it can be used as a main gauche in the off hand. Like the classic stiletto of history, this LARP weapon looks like quite the lethal little blade. This dagger features a slightly wider blade than the historical version in order to make it LARP safe, although the blade still features the narrow point that made the stiletto a deadly stabbing weapon.
The dagger's guard is a simple cross-bar that serves well in keeping blades off your hand, while the grip is leather wrapped to provide a secure hold. All in all, this little dagger would make a fine assassins tool, as well as a perfect weapon for your off-handed defense.
Crafted from an extremely durable foam that does not shred, this dagger has been sealed within a strong coating of latex. As safety is always a concern in LARP, this weapon also features a round, flexible fiberglass core that bends and flexes. The core also features a durable Kevlar cap for added protection from punch-through.
