Steel Domed Shield

This is the first shield I have ever owned, and I love it! It is made out of a good steel and is a great size for maneuver ability. Comes with decient heavy grade leather straps. I look forward to customizing this wonderful piece of equipment! Thanks for giving me a good start MRL!

Man this thing is sturdy! They said it's 18ga, but mine measures .0625~, which is closer to 16 gauge, so no complaints there! Fit and function are great, awesome!

The actual shield is great, no complaints. The leather straps are old hard and not usable, I will have to replace. Museum replica triple charged, the extra charges eventually dropped off after I called and complained. The poor quality straps and the triple charge is why I can only give 3 out 5 stars.

The shield is well built. The gauge of steel is good, I have not used a micrometer on it. The leather straps are sturdy. The only negative comment I have, would be I can see where the shield was polished on its front.

The ONLY reason I'm not giving this the full five stars is because I would have preferred a wooden dowel to grip instead of a leather strap -- which is not a show-stopper for me.  Other than that, it is perfect and entirely functional (as well as handsome) and rather reasonably priced for what you will get out of it.

Wow--So worth the wait! This item was on back order and didn't make it in time for my son's birthday, but that's fine, because it was definitely worth waiting for. It is really high quality, really well-made, and solid through and through. I don't know if this shield is only meant for decoration or not, but I have every reason to believe that it would serve well on the battle front as well. At any rate, my thirteen-year-old son is beyond thrilled with his Steel Domed Shield, and his Dad now wants one of his own for Christmas.
