Rob Roy Targe

(Ref: HW1084)

The Scots Targe used by the highlanders as a defense against both arrows and hand weapons was light and maneuverable, often concealing a left-hand held dirk. Our Rob Roy Targe has patterns dating to the ‘45 Jacobite Rising. This piece is beautifully made, with tooled leather over wood and a goatskin backing. The Rob Roy Targe has spikes which screw into the central boss, with sheaths for the spikes attached to the back of the Targe, which is equipped with a leather covered arm strap and hand grip. The Rob Roy Targe has brass decoration, and like the original is approximately 19” in diameter. Our HW2048 table stand is built to display the targe and one or two basket hilt swords.
