A '''Square shield''' is a type of [[shield]] equipped in a player's [[Worn_Equipment#Shield_Slot|shield slot]]. Square shields can be [[smithing|smithed]] from all types of metals except for black, white*, and dragon which exist in the form of monster drops. Although square shields are less powerful than [[kiteshield]]s, they are still used among players who find them fashionable, players who can't afford a kiteshield, and rarely by players using [[Magic]]. Many square shields can be bought in [[Cassie's Shield Shop]] in [[Falador]], though it would be easier to use the [[Grand Exchange]]. A little-known fact about these shields is that they do not have a Magic defence penalty.
