Viking 14g Boar Formation Function Umbo
Description:
Forge your shield into a weapon of legend with this Viking Umbo, a battle-ready boss forged from robust 14-gauge iron. Designed for the warrior who meets the charge head-on, its domed form is meant to punch forward into oncoming blows—a technique unique to the round shields of the North. The front face gleams with antique brass plating, catching the light like a relic pulled from a burial mound, while the reverse side bears a sleek glossy black finish. Eight pre-drilled holes and included mounting hardware ensure secure attachment to your shield. Measuring 7.90 inches across, it offers ample space behind to accommodate your grip. This is not merely a component; it is the defiant heart of your shield wall.
