What type of weapons does the SCA use ? Boffer, Latex, Wood, What?

Could've sworn they used rattan, not that I'm in the SCA or anything.

Google wins. =D

If I'm correct in what I've experienced with SCA (meaning we had to share a campground with them once) They pad their people, not their weapons. They have strict armor regulations, but I think they use hard wooden-type weapons...at least when their fighting.
They're also reenactors (as far as I know) and use live-steel when not in combat. I could be thinking of a different group, though.

My best guess would be looking at their website. I don't think we have any SCAers here.

Chainmail is fine, but if you get hit in the elbow, it will hurt alot more than metal armor
