In our shop in Tilburg you will find the biggest choice, significantly more than in the webshop, and you can see all the products 'life'. In addition, the advantage of a visit to our store is, for example, that clothing and protective gear can be fitted, and swords tried out.
Of course, products can also be ordered through our webshop. Products that are not listed with a delivery time, are normally in stock.
Finally, you can also find us at various medieval events, where we can always show a part of our assortment.
