While we originally started the Red Knight it was our intention not to sell weapons as obtaining battle re-enactment quality weapons was difficult and those that were available were provided by other suppliers.
However, obtaining good quality weapons has become more difficult and Lord of Battles has expanded into this area in recent years so we have introduced a range of weapons that we have been using ourselves in training and are happy to recommend.
Many of our weapons are blunted for combat re-enactment while others are sharp for use for live cutting in HEMA and other martial arts.
During 2019 we purchsed a number of Lord of Battles weapons and stress-tested then in-house for both foot and mounted combat training. They withstood the tests well so we are rapidly building up our range and available stock of swords, daggers. axes, spear heads, archery components and direct impact weapons.
We reserve the right to not sell any of our weapons if we feel that they run the risk of being misused.
