I've seen this thing in their catalog for the last six years or so I'd say, but I've not seen much said about it, nor have I seen it mentioned anywhere. LinkyI found a Youtube video which depicted test cuts with a whippy Windlass longsword, and the person in the vid wore one of these while he tested. This reminded me that the thing existed, and I thought I'd see who here has messed with this shield and how they liked it. M.

Its made of 18 gauge steel; as such it'll take some punishment but you'll find yourself beating out the dings if you decide to use it in a manner for which it should've been made. Good for backyard brawling but not necessarily for SCA but you'd have to check with whatever kingdom your area is part of...I'm assuming you're referring to the larger round shield and not the buckler; altho that buckler is made of the same gauge and material steel.

Thanks for the reply. I am referring to the larger shield; it reminds me of the Spanish rodella.
I might have to snag one sometime as a wall piece, if nothing else.
