"A shield in the line is not mere ornament; it is the wall standing between an enemy's edge and your ribs." Osric, Keeper of the Hearth & Forge
Forged for warriors who heed the call of the shield wall, this 60 cm round timber shield draws inspiration from Norse myth and the ravenous beast of Ragnarok. The foundation consists of robust 12 mm hardwood, offering substantial heft and durability for field reenactments, theatrical stage work, or hall garnishing. Painted across the crimson face are twin black wolf motifs, evoking the raw ferocity of Fenrir. Because each piece is painted and finished by hand, subtle variances in grain and pigment bestow an authentic, non-uniform character upon every plank.
At the centre sits a 16-gauge steel umbo, carefully hammered and treated with a blackened patina. This central boss deflects direct blows cleanly away from the fighter's knuckles, leaving ample room behind for a gloved hand. Around the circumference, a metal rim binds the outer edge, protecting the hardwood core against splitting during aggressive clashes.
In the hand, control is direct and commanding thanks to a long, sturdy wooden grip secured to the reverse. Whether bracing for a charge or wheeling into a counter-stroke, the balance remains true. To preserve the timber against the damp of campaign bivouacs, store this piece away from moisture and harsh sunlight. Treat the wood and exposed metal rim with a light application of oil on occasion, and wipe down the face with a dry cloth after drills.
