Hinnerk Foam Shovel is a LARP weapon and prop that faithfully mimics a simple work tool. Thanks to its realistic look, it makes a great accessory for craftsmen, mercenaries, and adventurers alike. The Hinnerk shovel works especially well as an improvised weapon in gritty low-fantasy or post-apocalyptic settings. The long wooden handle fits comfortably in your hand, and the angular blade looks just like metal.

Specs:

• total length: approx. 66 cm
• blade length: approx. 26 cm
• blade width: approx. 15 cm

Foam weapons combine detailed, visually appealing craftsmanship with technology designed for heavy 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 looks.

Material and Construction
Unlike classic latex weapons that require constant maintenance and are prone to "latex rot," this one is made of highly durable PU foam (polyurethane).

• Core: A sturdy fiberglass rod that ensures rigidity and prevents unwanted "whipping" during strikes.
• Surface: The foam is extremely resistant to tearing and abrasion. Unlike latex, it doesn't need frequent silicone spray maintenance and holds up better in the sun.
• Safety: The tip of the weapon is internally reinforced (often with Kevlar or a special fabric) to ensure the core never pokes through.

Realistic Look
Thanks to injection molding technology, these weapons feature details that are hard to achieve with hand-carving. The realistic steel texture adds credibility to your character.

Who are these foam weapons for?
Thanks to their versatility and affordable price, you get a "maintenance-free" weapon that will last you for years. NPCs and organizers get a durable tool that retains its quality even with frequent lending and combat in any weather.

Maintenance tip: Although PU foam weapons 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 finish.
