[Ansteorra] Rapier Buckler Question

[Stefan li Rous]

I'm afraid I can't answer your specific questions, but you might be interested in looking at this article about an unusual buckler written by Don Tivar in the COMBAT-RAPER section of the Florilegium:
Square-Bucklr-art (8K) 2/ 1/10 "To make a Square Target In the Style of
Marozzo or DiGrassi" by Don Tivar Moodragon

A few more comments in this file as well:
