Fighting equipment for Belegarth can be purchased from Edhellen Armory and Warlord Sports. They can also be constructed from easily acquired materials. The commercial equipment is well made and should pass at events (until they start to break down, like anything else). Individually made equipment has been experimented with by many people for years and the most consistent and durable designs are explained on the Belegarth Wiki.
Below are direct links to construction instructions for the most common equipment on the field. Making your own starter gear will be much easier if you speak with a more experienced player. They will usually be happy to answer any questions and guide you in constructing your gear.
