The Gudmond foam short sword is a great choice for rank-and-file knights, squires, and other common fantasy or historical characters. The weapon features a simple hilt that faithfully mimics a steel finish, while the subtly curved crossguard gives the sword an impressive, realistic look. Thanks to its compact design, Gudmond is a practical and easy-to-handle companion for close-quarters combat.

Weapon specs:

• total length: 83.5 cm
• blade length: 64.5 cm
• blade width: 5.5 cm
• handle length: 11 cm
• crossguard width: 19.5 cm
• weight: approx. 378 g
• safe distance from tip to fiberglass core: 5 cm

Foam swords combine detailed, visually attractive craftsmanship with technology designed for demanding use, inspired by the art of historical blacksmiths. They are the ideal choice for LARP, skirmish games, or cosplayers who demand safety and photorealism without compromising on appearance.

Material and construction
Unlike classic latex weapons, which require constant maintenance and are prone to "latex rot," these swords are made of highly durable PU foam (polyurethane).
Due to the manufacturing process, this foam weapon has a small hole on each side of the blade, which does not affect its functionality and is not a defect.

• Core: A sturdy fiberglass rod that ensures the weapon's rigidity and prevents unwanted "whipping" during strikes.
• Surface: The foam is extremely resistant to tearing and abrasion. Compared to latex, it requires less frequent maintenance with silicone spray and is more stable in sunlight.
• Safety: The tip of the weapon is internally reinforced (often with Kevlar or a special fabric) to ensure the core never cuts through. There is a 5 cm safety distance between the end of the core and the tip of the blade.

Realistic look
Thanks to injection molding technology, these swords feature details that are difficult to achieve with hand-carving. The hilts are anatomically shaped for a firm grip, and the blades have a realistic steel texture that adds credibility to your character.

Who are these swords for?
Thanks to their versatility and affordable price, they are a great choice for:

• Beginners: You get a "maintenance-free" weapon that will last you for years.
• NPCs and organizers: Due to their high durability, these swords can withstand constant lending and fighting in any weather.
• Advanced fighters: The balance of Mytholon brand weapons is generally very good and allows for more technical fencing maneuvers.

Maintenance tip: Although PU foam swords are very durable, we recommend cleaning them of mud with a damp cloth after an event and occasionally treating them with silicone oil to maintain the flexibility and shine of the surface finish.
