Pike for LARP with Optional Wooden Shaft / PU Foam Pike

Pike Head for LARP (Optional Wooden Shaft) / PU Foam Pike

Appearance and Construction

The head has a simple yet deadly effective leaf-shaped design with a massive socket for secure mounting on a shaft. Its design is intentionally universal to complement any warrior's costume. The surface finish imitates classic forged steel. Due to its lower weight compared to our other spearheads, it is ideal for assembling a pike or long spear of 2 meters or more. Safety is ensured by a wide, 3 cm diameter blunt tip and the partially flexible material of the head itself.

Build Your Own Weapon!

This head is perfect for all DIY enthusiasts and warriors who want to assemble their own weapon. Here are a few tips:

• Shaft: The ideal shaft diameter is 30–32 mm. It can be round or octagonal.
• Shaping: Before mounting the head, you must shape the end of the shaft according to the provided technical diagram. This ensures that the rubber hose reinforcing the tip fits perfectly onto the prepared peg. The narrowed portion for mounting is 8.5 cm long.
• Safety: The tip of the wooden shaft or fibreglass core must be thoroughly rounded to prevent it from damaging the foam head from the inside.
• Gluing: The entire surface of the shaft that is inserted into the socket must be coated with a high-quality adhesive. We recommend a strong, flexible construction glue like Pattex ONE FOR ALL.

A Piece of History in Your Hands

Spears and pikes are among the oldest and most effective weapons in human history. From the phalanxes of ancient Greece, through the shield walls of the Vikings, to the impenetrable squares of pikemen in the Renaissance, the polearm was the key to victory. It allowed a common soldier to keep a mounted, armoured knight at bay and became an almost invincible force when used in formation. With this weapon in hand, you become part of this millennia-old military tradition.

Safety First

Always remember that even a foam weapon requires responsible handling. Maintain a safe distance from your opponent and never thrust at the head, neck, or other sensitive areas. Regularly check that the head is securely mounted on the shaft.
