Thrust Knife & Holder

Thrust Knife & Holder

Epic Armoury’s Brown Thrust Knife Holder comes with a knife, and is specifically designed to hold the straight-edged Epic Armoury Thrust Knife throwing weapon. The handmade holder attaches to the belt or armor using two leather ties. A leather strap buttons over the knife, keeping it secure even in rough fights.

Made from leather and reinforced stitching around the edges, this weapon holder is built to keep its shape and withstand the abuse of a LARP with regular leather care.

• Available in Dark Brown and Epic Black colors

History

• Also referred to as a frog
• Historically used to hold the scabbard of an edged weapon vertically from the belt
• Thrust Dagger was designed to resemble a “balanced knife,” which is preferred by most Western traditions
• Knife throwing was first used in martial arts and hunting before it became a sport
• Throwing a knife was always considered a risk in martial arts, because an unsuccessful attack would leave you without a weapon while arming your attacker
