RFB Defender

The Ready For Battle Defender by Epic Armoury is a medium-sized fantasy sword with a refined, classic appearance. Measuring 75 cm overall, it is an excellent choice for LARP characters looking for a versatile and visually appealing weapon. Its balanced proportions and 15th-century Italian-inspired pommel give the sword a distinctive historical character.

The blade features a short ricasso near the crossguard. This section supports certain historical sword techniques and can provide additional finger protection in specific grip positions. A butterfly-shaped crossguard adds a striking visual detail, while the ergonomic handle is sculpted and hand-painted to resemble leather. Made from polyurethane foam, the handle requires no special leather care.

As a hybrid model in the Ready For Battle range, the Defender combines detailed styling with low-maintenance construction. The blade is made from closed-cell foam around a solid fiberglass core and finished with a durable latex coating. This makes it an appealing option for beginners and younger LARP participants.
