Attacks from behind should be avoided by any astute soldier. Put on the Balthasar Steel Backplate to defend yourself against an enemy attack. This armour plate, which is made of mild steel with a gauge of 18 is best worn with a breastplate such as the Balthasar Steel Breastplate (MY101302), which is available separately. Straps at the shoulders and sides allow it to be fastened to additional armor parts. The armor's design is riveted after that.

There are several segments in the design. For instance, two of the segments come together to form an inverted scallop with a point in the middle that runs the length of the chest. Furthermore, two more pieces make faulds. Because they are hinged, there is more flexibility. The inverted scallop edging is also present on the faulds. Ultimately, the backplate is most at ease when worn over a gambeson or other padded item of apparel. This backplate looks fantastic with any costume or LARP outfit. Additionally, you might wear it to a Renaissance fair or a play.
