Combat Broadswords
Axes & Daggers
Broadswords, axes, and daggers are medieval weapons frequently employed in theatrical productions such as King Lear, Macbeth, and Camelot. Additionally, we offer “light swords,” which are broadswords with a slightly narrower blade. These light swords align with the medieval aesthetic while minimizing the physical demands on smaller actors.
For inquiries regarding the rental of medieval weaponry or choreography for your upcoming production, please contact us via email at ross@fortestagecombat.com, phone at 847-217-7505, or complete a request form on our contact page.
