Good exchanges. Massive fan of the Heater here! 2:26 => why sword knots were a real thing and far more important historically than credited today. Cheers.
very cool so is the horizontal grip you have here better than the angled grip we often see (with the hand grip angled up towards the top right of the back of the shield)?
That boils down to personal preference. The horizontal grip is historical and best for cavalry action on a horse. But on foot it's also fine. Shield hand moves around as needed no problem.
THIS LOOKS SO COOL!!!

If only HEMA classes I attended had Antti Martikainen's music as background noise.
Nice.

Where did you guys buy your heater shields?
I made them.
