Looking for a couple of generic handle shields

I’d like to start practicing inlaying handle shields in bone. I don’t really want to buy a quantity of shields just to practice so I’m hoping myabe one of you has a few old generic ones laying around that you’d be willing to send my way.
I’d be happy to pay for the postage.
Thanks.

I can't help with the shields but if you can inlay a shield you could also make a shield. I make them out of nickle silver sheet stock.

Thanks.
I found a place that sells them fairly cheap so I ordered some up to practice with.

Jeffinn, just follow me around when I'm carrying a Boker. They are great knives but the shield always pops off.

LOL!
Most of the Bokers I’ve bought the last few years have been missing the shields. I got a few of the shields directly from Boker. A few are no longer available.
