This authentic 16th-century German mace is expertly crafted to evoke the powerful weapons wielded in the late medieval and Renaissance eras. Unlike many decorative pieces, this mace is forged entirely from steel to offer an imposing feel and historical accuracy that collectors, history buffs, and LARP warriors will appreciate.

The blackened steel head features robust ridges historically designed to dent or pierce armor, making it a fearsome close-quarters weapon. The leather handle provides a secure grip and is paired with a long strap to prevent accidental drops, details inspired by period examples.

This piece is constructed with a solid metal core, providing durability and a realistic weight of 1.5 kg, comparable to the maces used by Landsknechts and infantrymen of the German states. The matte black finish protects against corrosion and gives the weapon an imposing appearance that pairs perfectly with chain mail or plate armor.

The mace is equally suitable for theatrical performances or as a display piece in any medieval collection. Whether worn on a belt or on the shoulder, its historical presence is unmistakable.

IDEAL FOR:

• Medieval and Renaissance groups
• Collectors of historical weapon replicas
• LARP and immersive theater productions
• Exhibition in historical exhibitions, museums or private collections
• Costumes at festivals and fairs

CARE INSTRUCTIONS:

• Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture to preserve the finish.
• Periodically clean the metal parts with a lightly oiled cloth to prevent rust.
• Condition the leather grip and lanyard with a leather balm to maintain flexibility and prevent cracking.
