### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding!
*by S***Y on December 24, 2012*

This is a very durable and well-constructed shield. Its small size makes it easy to carry around and throw into the car. I'm new to wielding the buckler. I've used shields before, but I'm accustomed to it being much larger and heavier. The way you hold this shield is very different. I'm used to having a secondary strap attached to my forearm while the hand grips the bar close to the rim of the shield. The handle is smack-dab in the middle of this one, so using it is a very different experience than with larger shields. It is better for offensive use or for swift ripostes rather than blocking. It is because it's so small, and has such a round bulging surface - it's designed to quickly bounce off and deflect the blow rather than to just stand there and absorb the full impact as you would with a larger shield. Even though this shield is so small and seemingly simple to use, it has taken me some time to get use to holding it directly in front of me, as well having to punch or smack to deflect . It's weird not having it braced to my forearm to block in a side-stance like I'm accustomed to. The buckler can be tilted to line up the rim of the shield with your arm, but it's an awkward grip, and obviously leaves most of your arm from your elbow up to your shoulder exposed. It isn't as effective as a larger shield for punching with the rim specifically, but it is possible, and certainly quicker to use with an uppercut technique. As I said, it's more like an off-hand weapon in its own right. It's very easy to bash and pummel with, but requires speed and coordination to block and parry with effectively. I do really wish Cold Steel would develop a larger Polycarbonate shield. I would buy it in instant, even if it was twice the price of this one. The larger (and more mediocre) shield I am training with just isn't able to take the abuse and has flimsy handle/brace straps. Overall, I'm very pleased with this shield. I'm learning a whole new style of fighting which is a lot of fun. 5/5 without question!
