1. Useful Information

 

Every item bought from Hack and Slash has a one year warranty.
If a latex weapon has manufacturing fault, we will, of course, be more than happy to replace it free or charge. This does not cover, however, if a latex weapon has taken damage due to its wielder using it in an improper manor or if the weapon has not been stored correctly. Correct usage and storage guidelines can be found on this site.

Unless otherwise requested or stated, we manufacture all our products to comply with the safety standards of major UK live action role-playing systems. Please tell us if the system for which the item is required for has different safety standards (softer foam for example), as we can only accept responsibility for products failing safety checks if it is due to manufacturing error.

The risk in all goods shall pass to the customer on delivery of the item/s.

For general enquiries please send us an email or Facebook message.

Colours may vary.

All specifications are approximate.

 

 

2. Hack and Slash Reserved Rights

 

We reserve the right to use photographic material of all our products made.

We reserve the right to refuse any commission.

We reserve the right to refuse to make a prop if there is a possibility that it may break copyright laws.

We reserve the right to exercise artistic licence when making props if we feel it is needed, without committing to informing the customer.

We reserve the right to change minor details without notice.

 

 

3. Commissions / Bespoke Weaponry

 

For a quotation for a bespoke prop, please send a picture and any written descriptions to us via email or Facebook message (please click here for details), along with any specified measurements. Quotations are usually given within three working days.

For a guide about how to design your own weapon so that it is makeable, please click here.

All commissions are assessed on an individual basis as design, complexity, materials and specialised finishes vary.

Some bespoke props may look ‘slightly’ different from the original design proposed as prop making is not an exact science.

The customer shall indemnify ‘Hack and Slash’ against all damages, penalties, costs and expenses to which ‘Hack and Slash’ may become liable as a result of work undertaken in accordance with the customer’s specifications. This includes an infringement of a registered design or copyright.

We will not send out any part completed weapons.

7. Refund Policy

 

Goods will not be accepted for return without prior agreement.

All weapons constructed by Hack and Slash have to pass an in-house weapons check before being sent to the customers. As a result we will not accept a weapon as refundable due to failed weapon check at an event unless it is due to a manufacturing fault.

Refunds will only be given to the original card details that the credit was originally taken from.

Cancelled commissions / bespoke weapons will still have a charge attached of all materials used to the point of refund request.

9. Repair Service

 

We do not repair any weapons so please do not request any quotations for this service.

It is advised that if you have a prop that is deemed to be a danger by any LARP system, that you do not ever try to use it again in its original capacity.

 

 

10. Leather Items

All leather items are handmade and not machine produced.

12. Despatch Times

 

All latex items are made to order for each individual customer. This is reflected in our despatch time. It is approximately 3 to 5 weeks for weapons depending upon whether the prop is a stock item and what kind of finish is required for the item. Armour lead times are only available in quotations.
Also, our despatch times vary depending on demand. This means we cannot guarantee delivery times, but endeavour to do our best to get your items to you as quickly as possible without hindering the quality of an item.

The despatch time of non-latex stock items are approximately within one week from receipt of payment unless otherwise stated.
