Well first, I tried posting this already, and I think my computer went all "NO" on me...again, so if it turns out as a double post please remove this one.
So this is my new acquisition/product of boredom. a 16g steel hand-pavise/buckler with aluminum handle and a paint job.
I wrote a lot more in the first attempt to post, I'll elaborate if this one goes through.
****(EDIT)****
it went through but the pictures I have are to large
I'll try to figure out how to make them work.
but in the mean time:
16g steel
aluminum handle
black painted
brown leather wrap grip
inscription painted in gold on black boarder
center painting of St. Michael slaying a Dragon
^hope that helps with a visual.
