Orlat Battle Plaque\'s Importance

[John Conyard]

I fear I still haven't researched the development of these sword hilts as a means of dating the plaques. But we did field two Orlat style quivers last weekend. I was very pleased with the way they worked, worn on the right hand side. My only issue was when I got my kontos caught up with my quiver in a practice run. I used it with both a 3m spear and a 4m kontos and soon learned how not to get the weapons caught in it.
