Oathbound Halberd – Modular Polearm for Elite Sentinels
Construction and Practical Use
This polearm stands out for its versatility. The entire system consists of the head, two screw-on shaft sections, and a weighted tail. Utilizing high-quality 304 stainless steel screws, the connections are solid and reliable, yet disassembly takes only seconds. This is a massive advantage for transport, allowing an 8ft (240 cm) weapon to fit comfortably into standard travel luggage. The upper shaft features a carbon fiber core for maximum stiffness, while the lower sections use fiberglass for optimal weight distribution.

Historical Context: The Weapon That Changed History
The halberd was a revolutionary weapon in its day. In the hands of Swiss mercenary companies, it could halt even the proudest mounted knights. This specific replica draws inspiration from the era when halberds transitioned from functional tools of war to ornate symbols of prestigious guard units. The richly decorated head with floral engravings pays tribute to the equipment of palace guards and sworn retainers who took their oath of service with the utmost seriousness.
Product Care and Safety
Although the Oathbound is made from durable foam, proper handling is required to preserve its longevity and appearance.
- Maintenance: Clean the weapon with a damp cloth after every event. Regularly treat the foam parts with silicone spray designed for LARP weapons to prevent the material from becoming brittle.
- Storage: It is best to store the halberd disassembled or horizontally. Never leave it standing on its tip, as this may lead to permanent deformation.
- Safety: This weapon is intended for LARP and theatrical combat. It is not suitable for full-contact armored combat (Buhurt). The point features a security flex tip; however, avoid targeting sensitive areas like the face or throat.
- Warnings: Avoid striking hard edges (rocks, trees) and do not leave the weapon in a hot car during summer months.
