The planned collection
A collection with presence.
The Tinderbox is planned as a fantasy and historical armory: a place for the collector, archer, reenactor, and LARP adventurer to discover weapons, armor, and the accessories that complete a character. The selection centers on medieval, traditional, and story-inspired designs, with functional pieces, display replicas, and dedicated training or LARP versions clearly identified by their intended use.
01Swords, daggers & collector blades
Historical and fantasy swords, daggers, and knives, with functional steel pieces, decorative replicas, and purpose-made practice or LARP counterparts.
02Crossbows, longbows & recurve bows
Traditional-style crossbows, longbows, and recurve bows, including functional archery equipment, display reproductions, and dedicated LARP options where available.
03Axes & striking weapons
Viking and medieval-inspired axes, fantasy battle axes, maces, and war hammers, offered in functional, replica, and dedicated training or LARP constructions.
04Spears, staves & polearms
Spears, halberds, staffs, and other long-form historical or fantasy designs, from display pieces to purpose-made training and LARP equipment.
05Armor & protective attire
Medieval and fantasy-inspired helmets, cuirasses, chainmail, gauntlets, bracers, greaves, padded layers, and leather armor, with intended use identified for each piece.
06Shields & character equipment
Historical and fantasy shields, heraldic designs, and character-defining equipment, including display, reenactment, and LARP versions.
07Movie, book & legendary replicas
Story-inspired weapons and armor, with officially licensed movie and literary-world replicas where available, alongside historical reproductions and original fantasy designs.
08Training & LARP collections
Purpose-made practice weapons, foam or latex LARP designs, and matching equipment for character play. Construction and intended use will distinguish these from display replicas and functional weapons.
09Accessories, display & care
Arrows and dedicated LARP arrows, quivers, bowstrings, armguards, tabs and shooting gloves; scabbards, sheaths, belts, frogs, baldrics, straps, weapon stands, wall mounts, and care supplies.
