Achilles shortsword

The second edition of our popular foam weapons is made out of a new material. It is more tear-resistant than our old foam and absorbs the energy of every hit. Moreover, we updated the handle wraps so that you can wield your weapon with a good grip and accuracy even in a heated battle.The "Griffin" short sword from the "Battle Standard" series is modelled on a cutlass. The tip of the single-edged blade is located somewhat higher than the central line, which gives this typical cutting weapon its unique shape. Pommel and crossguard are boldly curved and lend this sword a dynamic air. This foam weapon is not only for pirates. It may also be a loyal companion for oriental-inspired characters, elves, rogues, and basically all characters unwilling or unable to wield a double-edged sword.On account of its compact size, this foram weapon is also ideally suited for the next generation of heroes.Material: Foam, GRPTotal length: 71 cmBlade length: 54 cmWidth: 12 cmPlease note: Battle Standard products may have a hole on the flat of the blade near the point. This hole is created during production, a technical necessity in order to stabilize the core rod while the weapon is filled with foam. Moreover, further small holes may be present on the surface in other places. These holes are not to be understood as flaws and do not affect the foam weapon’s safety.Disclaimer: All items shown here were especially designed to safely portray fights in controlled environments like live roleplay events, theatre stages etc. The foam weapons are made with a glass fibre reinforced plastic rod as a core, fully encapsulated in soft foam to avoid injuries.
