Hoplites of the Archaic Age

[hoplite14gr]

Giannis, what you show is probable bt we avoid it as much as possible.

Paul a rather "wide-ish" prorpax (individual's taste on wide) can allow to dispense with the antilavi when not in violent movement-not for long though.

Thick rope/wool antilavi is the steadiest but you hold other things not well with the edge of your fingers.

Leather antilavi is ver comfortable but unsteady at least in my opinion.

We will experiment with combinations rope/wool leather.

Personal note: I once experimnted with a rigid metalic door handle as antilave. It was the best but you couldn't carry/handle anything else while holding to it.

Kind regareds
