Thanks Matt, I've owned two of these and let both go I'm ok with that though, I enjoyed it when I owned them but to nice to carry so I'm glad someone else owns them now.

Thanks David, I enjoyed them but just never put in my pocket, so it was best to move them along

Here is a waterfall shield - Or at least I think that’s what it’s called. I don’t know much about it except it’s common on sowbelly knives.

Does anyone have an example of a "waterfall" shield? That's a new one on me, never heard that name for a shield before.

I think it’s also called a bodice shield too btw.

Like others, I too like the double bomb shield. Surprised to not have seen a corset posted yet. They both would be my favorites. I also like the cowboy boot

Huntnfishin, thanks for the waterfall example. I knew that one as a bodice or swimsuit shield.

Here are a couple more that I like.

Huntnfishin, thanks for the waterfall example. I knew that one as a bodice or swimsuit shield.

I've seen that shield referred to as corset shield and Barbie shield, too.

I like the looks of the bollocks shield, but prefer to call it a chess queen shield to minimize explanations.
