In this video I go through the steps for how I make a LARP safe Great sword or two handed sword for a character within the LARP system of Empire by profound decisions. This technique can be applied to most large two handed weapons.
I have built this so that it complies with the two handed great weapon rules for Empire Larp here in the UK. [ Ссылка ]...
The initial template is from one of Calimacils great swords which had a great ratio of flame wobble to length and can be found here [ Ссылка ] I simply printed the template to the size I wanted and went from there. This came as part of the request from my friend (this is not a paid commission, I don't make these weapons to sell, I'm just sharing the process) as they liked the overall size and shape but needed something that was the correct length for the empire great weapon rules.
Here is a list of the things I use in the video if you're UK based like me.
