The Armoury



The Ring of Steel maintains a weapons collection that consists of well over 1600 individual pieces. Considering an average purchase price of over $200.00, our collection represents a substantial investment. We purchase weapons from reputable suppliers though there are a few weapons for costume use that have been aquired at the proverbial garage sale. Of late, we rarely purchase a fully assembled weapon from a specific manufacturer; prefering to perform final assembly in our workshop in order to obtain the most precise fit for all of the components.

Our current policy is to increase the diversity of our collection, having aquired sufficient numbers of similar weapons to teach most of our classes. Each of these links leads to brief historical notes concerning the weapon classification and thumbnail pictures of our actual inventory.
