3 Ways to Make a Boffer Sword pt 1

The first sword that Im going to show you is your basic fun noodle sword. The second and third I came up with on my own. The second has a nice and slim blade so you can really fly with it. The third is a squared design so it looks more like a blade.

Y U NO HAVE LARPING BELGIUM ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)

[legionangel04]

@SlimeyBastardVG2 Its a part of Europe so i covered it.

[tashalotr]

I am surprised at the lack of insults on this wall ( this being a LARP vid) LARP must be getting more popular

[legionangel04]

@tashalotr For your information good sir LARPing isnt getting popular, it already is very popular. There are 2 main groups; Amtgard and Dagorhir. Amtgard itself has millions of players in the US, Canada, and Europe. It was formed 30-40 years ago. As proof of the amount of players why dont you visit amtgardrecordsDOTcom. As for your snide comment about the lack of insults i have one question for you. If you think LARPing should be insulted, why did you watch this video if you werent interested?

use kitespar

[legionangel04]

@TheVeritasWithLarp Yeah I learned that after I got into amtgard. Some time in the near future I will be making vids on amtgard ultra-lights that last a long ass time.

@tashalotr Recently there was a boffing club created at my Highschool if that counts. Ive done it but since its school we must be careful of beating anyone too hard, ya know, because its school and all and nobody wants law suits

[TheVeritasWithLarp]

@legionangel04 yeah. i never use boffers when im larping. I only use latex swords.

[legionangel04]

@Thez0mbiekillaa When I have the time I will put videos up of making amtgard legal weapons covering everything you are asking about.

[legionangel04]

@Thez0mbiekillaa Axe = core, camp pad, craft foam on striking surface, athletic tape for cover. Mace is the same as the axe. For a tower shield watch my boffer playlist. If the cardboard isnt large enough alternate where the board is cut with each piece and really it tape well. Put 2 layers of camp foam on the front and 2 going around the edge, Then cover it with some cloth. Bed sheets work fine. Dont make a bow unless its the exact materials to make a real one.
