Three questions.
1.) How much for a Yank like me to acquire this?
2.) Do you have an Etsy Shop? I found you but not your shop.
3.) can this possibly be customized (green instead of purple)?

so I have a question, with axe/hammer weapons how do you handle making the hard core? Do you have a rigid method? or are you just using the fiber cloth to re-enforce the cross sections?

well first things first what materials do you suggest?

Well it depends on the end product. If I am making a one off blade then I use Plastazote foam. There are 3 grades and I tend to use the medium grade (LD33).
All foam parts are then coated in latex and coloured with acrylics. We seal the latex with a clear polyurathane rubber.
If I am makeing runs of weapons then I cast them in expanding flexible polyurathane rubber. This is a much more complex process and has much high setup costs.

Man this looks so good. Very unique war hammer. I've been wanting to try to make my own larp weapons for a while. This is very inspiring.
