Key Features Unmatched Quality Authentic Hounskull Design: Features the distinctively tapered "pigface" visor, a hallmark of European knights from the 14th and early 15th centuries.

Integrated Chainmail Aventail: The helmet includes a full aventail (mail curtain) attached to a leather vervelle strap, protecting the neck and just like a real medieval bascinet.

Durable Steel Construction: Forged from robust 1.2mm - 1.5mm thick steel, this helmet is built for longevity. It's substantial enough for display and safe for controlled LARP and reenactment use (check your group's rules).

Wearable Adjustable: Designed for real people! The interior features a padded arming cap or adjustable leather liner (varies by batch) for a secure and comfortable fit on most adult heads.

Functional Visor: The visor pivots smoothly up and down on side pins, allowing the knight to easily raise it for visibility or air and lower it for protection before a charge.

Riveted & Solid: Attention to detail is key. You'll find authentic-looking rivets and a solid construction that feels as real as it looks.

Perfect Finishes: Available in classic Polished Steel, Matte Black, or Battle-Worn finishes to suit your character's persona.

Detailed Description Dimensions This Knight Helmet is a masterpiece of medieval design.

The Bascinet Skull: The close-fitting steel skull cap is expertly formed to deflect blows. It is designed to be worn with a padded arming cap underneath for historical accuracy and comfort.

The Pigface Visor (Hounskull): The defining feature. Its pointed, sloping design was historically intended to deflect enemy lance tips and sword blows away from the wearer's face. It features numerous sight and breath holes (sights and breaths) for vital ventilation and visibility on the "field of honor."

The Aventail: This is the mail neck defense, made of butted chainmail links. It is attached to the helmet via a leather strip using historical "vervelles" (metal staples), allowing it to swing freely. It offers excellent protection for the vulnerable neck and collarbone area.

Interior Comfort: Includes a removable padded liner with chin strap to ensure the helmet stays securely in place during movement.

This is more than just a helmet; it's the heart of your medieval identity.

LARP (Live Action Role-Playing): Become the feared black knight or the noble hero on the battlefield. Perfect for games like Dagorhir, Amtgard, Darkon, or any fantasy LARP setting.

Historical Reenactment: A must-have for anyone recreating the 100 Years' War period (e.g., Battles of Agincourt, Crecy). Please confirm safety standards with your specific reenactment group.

SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism): An excellent piece for SCA wear, though combat use may require additional internal modifications to meet society safety standards.

Theater, Cosplay Film: An incredibly authentic prop for stage productions, cosplay events (like Comic-Con), or independent film projects. It looks incredible on camera.

Unique Home Office Decor: Mount it on a shield, place it on a stand, or display it on a shelf. It creates an imposing and intellectual atmosphere in any man cave, library, study, or game room.

The Ultimate Gift: For the history buff, the fantasy fan, the collector, or the renaissance faire enthusiast, this is a gift they will never forget. Perfect for birthdays, holidays, or as a trophy for oneself.
