New buckler

A central place to talk about weapons and armour, as it relates to your kit. This is where you show it of or talk about making it. Discussing the relative merits of types of weapons goes in the WMA section.

New buckler

Post by theowl »

In my workshop I had a shield boss that had some rust/pitting, as well as a leather buckler body that was left in the wax too long and got some weird scorch marks on the front. Today I decided to not let them go to waste and made myself a new buckler. I cut a star design out of some green oil tan and stitched it over the top, and chemically darkened the boss to give it a cool look. I've been carrying a single hand sword recently, so this will be a nice addition to my kit for the off hand.
