Your throwing knives are held safely in the Throwing Knives Holder at your belt, keeping them handy while your hands are busy picking a noble’s unguarded luggage. Leaving anything valuable without a guard is like an invitation to steal it...at least that’s been your experience.
With a satisfying ‘click!’ the lock comes undone and you pry the chest open to reveal--oh, yes! That will do nicely. You pocket what looks to be a sizeable purse and a few interesting looking weapons, before carefully replacing the lock and sneaking out of the tent undetected.
DETAILS
Epic Armoury’s Throwing Knives Holder 3 is a leather frog that keeps up to three throwing knives handy when the going gets rough. Designed to hang from any Epic Armoury belt or baldric, this holder is handmade, open at both ends, and will accommodate a throwing knife up to 4 cm in diameter. The loop around each knife is made from gentle split-leather, protecting your weapons from wear and tear, while a leather cord keeps each knife extra secure.
Match this Throwing Knives Holder with any character you wish to equip by securing the holder to your belt through the 7 cm belt loops or tying the four leather cords to your equipment. Made from vegetable-tanned full-grain leather, brass studs, and stitching around the edges, this weapon holder is built to keep its shape and withstand the abuse of a LARP with regular leather care.
Available in colours Black and Brown.

Natural leather products are very durable, but require regular maintenance with leather care products to stay flexible and to increase life-time. Make sure your leather products are kept dry when stored. Let wet leather dry naturally before treating. If frequently wet and dry, increase frequency of maintenance.
Cleaning
Clean by removing dirt with a hard brush, then gently rub on leather soap with a clean, damp cloth until the leather appears clean. Remove soap with a separate damp cloth to wipe away any soap residue and then use a dry cloth to wipe away any remaining water from the leather.
Conditioning
You should always condition leather after cleaning, since the soap will have removed some of its natural oils. Treat the leather with mink oil, olive oil, or beeswax polish with a clean cloth, gently rubbing a small amount of oil or polish in circles into the leather. Allow the leather to soak in the oil before wiping the leather with a final clean cloth to remove any excess residue.
