#045 Round Targe
The use of a small buckler or targe was a very popular form of defense, especially in England. A chronicler commenting on defense prior to the use of single rapier said " euery Seruing-man, from the base to the best, carried a Buckler at his backe, which hung by the hilt or pomell of his Sword- which hung before him." Our targe is a 16 gauge steel, hard handled shield. It is also our most popular stage combat item.
