Description

You wake from an awful nightmare. You were traveling through the ancient forest, hunting an orc tribe pillaging on your land. You and your fellow scout were spotted by the enemy...but as you reached for your sword, you found that it was missing!

Phew. Thankfully it was just a dream. You have an Elven Holster Hook, after all. Your sword is always safely in your sword belt.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Epic Black Elven Holster Hook is a clever tool that keeps your elven latex sword from falling through your weapon holder. Epic Armoury elven swords are designed without crossguards in order to achieve a sleek appearance, which can make it difficult to stay in your sword holder, or frog. We’ve created the Elven Holster Hook as a simple solution. Simply tie the Holster Hook around your weapon’s grip, and you will find that it will now rest inside your holder like any normal sword without sacrificing the unique look of your weapon.

Made from black durable leather and leather cord stitching, this hook is built to keep its shape and withstand the abuse of a LARP with regular leather care. With an elegant appearance, it will match any elven or imperial weapon nicely. Pair it with one of our swords without a crossguard, or on a weapon that has a bad habit of freeing itself from your belt.

Available in Epic Black and Brown.

HISTORY

  • A weapon holder is also referred to as a frog
  • Crossguards weren’t necessarily used even on historical weapons--becoming more popular after 10th century Europe
  • Elves were originally a creation of Germanic mythology and folklore
  • Made from natural, full-grain quality leather
  • Straps and fittings made from natural, top-grain quality leather
  • Top-grain leather fittings
  • Stitching around edges strengthen structural stability and increase lifetime
  • Colours dyed into material
  • Handmade by qualified professionals. Measurements are approximations.

Natural leather products are very durable, but require regular maintenance with leather care products to stay flexible and to increase life-time. Make sure your leather products are kept dry when stored. Let wet leather dry naturally before treating. If frequently wet and dry, increase frequency of maintenance.

Cleaning

Clean by removing dirt with a hard brush, then gently rub on leather soap with a clean, damp cloth until the leather appears clean. Remove soap with a separate damp cloth to wipe away any soap residue and then use a dry cloth to wipe away any remaining water from the leather.

Conditioning

You should always condition leather after cleaning, since the soap will have removed some of its natural oils. Treat the leather with mink oil, olive oil, or beeswax polish with a clean cloth, gently rubbing a small amount of oil or polish in circles into the leather. Allow the leather to soak in the oil before wiping the leather with a final clean cloth to remove any excess residue.
