Hi!
My friends and I are going to LARP for the first time, and we want to come with these sweet weapons to fight with. I read the rules on weapon building, and I'm aware that the stabbing end has to be wider than an eye socket, but the weapons I am imagining creating are a bit more complicated than simply a sword. They are dual crescent axes modeled after one of my favorite video game characters. I've uploaded a picture of what they look like as an attachment. The tip of the spear looking part I've assumed that I would veer off of making it spear like as I would like to be able to stab with the weapon. As for the axe part, I would like some advice on how to make it look as close to the picture as possible without making it illegal to use in combat. I was planning on using the same method and materials seen in this video to make them:
I guess what I really want to know are answers to these questions:
Are the materials used in this video going to make my weapons illegal for fighting? Or if I make the weapons (and others) out of whats in the video, will they be allowed to see combat?
Are the axes I attached a picture of going to end up rejected if I make the axe part just like how it shows up in the picture?
Thank you to anyone in advance for any help or advice.
