Quote:What is the weight like with these?
They were supposedly heavier than regular scuta.

Byron, I think these would have to be filled / coated with concrete / lead or stone for them to be heavier, from what i can gather from reading anyways, they were apparently as much as twice the weight of their normal counterparts...

On another note, i have ordered a heap of Willow from a guy in Insch (very cheap!) for us to try to make our own! Wink
