A dimension template is used during weapons check to test whether a weapon fulfills the dimension requirements listed in the Book of War.
Here is an example of a template:
Functions:
- 1. 6" side for checking flail chain length
- 2. 3" side for checking sword flat width
- 3. 1.25" notch for checking sword edge width
- 4. 1.5" notch for checking amount of exposed flail chain (no more than 1.5")
- 5. 2" hole for checking pommel diameter
- 6. 2.5" hole for checking arrow heads as well as weapon tips
- 7. .75" slot cut near a corner for attaching a tape measure
NOTE: The rules for weapon checking have changed since this template was designed. In particular, there is no longer minimum sword edge width. Additionally, the 3" flat minimum is only required for swords with semi-circular tips which pass more than .5" through a 2.5" hole.
