Authentic Medieval Design: The design shows traditional European types of medieval shields, specifically the quick and agile bucklers used for close-combat sword fighting. Compact and effective, the shield buckler is great at blade control, parrying strikes and delivering counter-blows during fast-paced engagements.

Durable 16-Gauge Steel Construction: Hand-forged from sturdy mild steel, this buckler is built for real use, from light sparring to HEMA training. The rolled rim makes it lasting and safe, while the steel body provides reliable impact resistance.
