Saints with swords

Any ideas for a Saint costume that involves a sword? (Hambet has flatly rejected St Michael.) I’ve thought of St Louis; any other ideas?

  1. St. Peter…had the sword in the garden and cut off the ear of those arresting Christ.
    Or, you could always get him a pistol and dress him as St Gabriel Ponsetti…

  2. Probably any king-saint like St. Louis–then you get a sword and a crown 🙂

  3. Thanks for all the great suggestions (and Sparki, I remember that awesome St Hubert costume!)
    We decided to go with St George! I dug in my fabric box and found some white muslin for the tabard. I used grosgrain ribbon for the red cross. Existing sword and shield props from Ikea et voila! Off to the party!
