Viking Axe LARP weapon

Foam weapon with wolves and knotwork

Designed by ArmStreet and skillfully crafted by Calimacil, this is an exact copy of our steel Viking Axe suitable for LARPing. You may not believe it from the pictures, but this gorgeous little axe is actually made from foam! At ArmStreet, we feel that LARP weapons don’t need to look ordinary and boring, which is why we have decided to turn some of our popular metal decorative weapons into LARP-safe alternatives. Made to match our best-selling Viking collection, you will be ready to hit the battlefield once this axe is in your hands! The original design is based on period Viking style but is completely unique as most of what ArmStreet does. This particular design resembles wolves twisting their way around the head of the axe, with basic knotwork appearing to be “carved” into the “wooden” haft. The technology and molding quality don’t need any additional explanation as this axe is made for you by a leading LARP weapon manufacturer.

Live-action role-playing differs from other medieval combat hobbies: most LARPers use foam instead of real steel weapons, which leads to fewer injuries and also removes the need for excessive protective gear. That being said, lots of LARPers still use real metal armor, and many have incredibly detailed costumes that take inspiration from both history and fantasy!

This axe is a bearded axe, which was quite common for Vikings, is merged with a “wooden” haft made of foam as well. It is meant to be used in one hand and has a great weight to swing at your enemies – because, let’s be honest, you won’t be chopping any wood with this axe! And once more, for clarity: this weapon is not real, both the “metal” axe head and “wooden” haft are made completely from foam with a fiberglass core. The overall length is 65 cm (or 25 1/2”), which makes it an excellent stand-alone weapon and a good candidate for your shield and axe duo.

We genuinely hope this collaboration will last and expand and are now waiting for more weapons to come from it.
