Is there a hand strap on the back of this shield? How heavy is it? Would it be suitable for a ten-year-old boy?

It's the size of a dinner plate it has a solid handle and my nine year old plays with many cold steel items. They can and will hurt if you're hit by it. Otherwise it's pretty cool. Spray paints nice

There is no hand strap. It is just the single grip in the center. It is not very heavy, but does go well with the other equipment for sparring with the Cold Steel medieval sword trainers. I do think a ten year old boy could use it as a training aid. As far as just for a toy, this is really more of a training implement.

While it is small, it is a buckler (not a true shield) and meant to be gripped with one hand in the center, so no strap. It weighs close to 1 pound. It would be great for a 10 year old--just make sure he understands that it is made for actual fighting practice, and can pack a whallop on someone.

there was a solid handle no strap, the shield is no larger than a large plate, but it's not as big as you would think, this type of shield was ment for manuverability not like a giant spartan shield

I got this for my brother who was Five at the time, and he could handle it for awhile but eventually got tired, no hand strap but a good solid handle thats smooth and easy to handle, i didn't like bucklers until i got this one, and its good for people ages 5+

I personally haven't weighed it but it's pretty light weight as compared to an older child's helmet. My girls never have an issue.

Yes. It is pretty hard to pull back all the way. My 10 yr old still can't do it by himself. Don't know if it's adjustable. This should be treated as a weapon not a toy!

The strap is solid but soft enough. So, I do not see why you should not use it. I do not know the exact measurement of the strap but it is neither too long nor too short , allowing our three year old walk independently but within our sight (especially at the airport and crowded park entrances). Of course, as with similar items, I would not leave a young child unattended with this item.

It came with a hand held shield and a brush, you will want to buy a helmet and hammer. The face shield was not something I would want to use but it would work while you are getting a helmet. No hammer included, it does have a couple of starter rods, buy the same size and you will be o.k.

Mine did not have a strap, (as far as I recall). There is the facility to attach a strap. I agree with the comment above that a strap seems risky with such an expensive item.

My son says it is not adjustable. He's 10 and it's fine for him. He's a little on the small side for 10. It is noticeably heavier than other Razor models.

My son is almost 4 years old, about 37#, and I wear him in this {back carry}. Highly suggest making sure there is something between your skin and the straps, just a t-shirt, because the straps can get a bit diggy on your skin.

yes, it was for my 10 year old son and it works well. may not work well for larger adults.

There is a strap that you can attach to the handle but I have never pulled this toy with my child on it . Too dangerous!

Tanya, sorry to hear your son is hurt. Yes, I believe this would be helpful, yet if he took a hard shot I'm sure he would still feel it. As for moving in it I don't think he'd have a problem. You also could leave the two rib guards out of the back. Our son uses this for Lacrosse and feel it definitely adds more protection under his game pads.

Hi PamSue, it does not come with a hand strap. However, the material it is made of allows for a good grip. I highly recommend this case for the ipad mini. Hope this was useful.

I have one on my Asus 10.1 Tablet and it works great for myself. I would not use this on a Tablet if a child is usually it. I also have an iPad and I have a M-Edge bumper on that one, which is much tougher and stronger and actually unbreakable for the iPad. I also have a M-Edge bumper on the grand children iPad. They are 4 yrs and 6 yrs old. They drop their iPad at least 4 times a day.

It does not come with a strap. U may have to use a rope that wouldn't irritate his skin. Good luck�

The shield is attached to the seat it's one piece. and yes its tall enough for boys. It is actually better for boys than girls. But my grand daughter gets up there and uses it just fine. It is super stable and durable she isn't scared at all. Its a good product.

Yes it weight more or less like a hunting rifle, so it's would be heavy for a kid to carry around. Shooting it from a table or a fixed position would still work if you still want to get one.

I don't have figures but it is pretty light, a 10 year old would have no problem.
