This helmet is handcrafted from 18-gauge mild steel for increased strength and durability. Its aged and antique finish, punctuated with light hammer marks, gives it a strikingly realistic battle-worn appearance.

The design of this helmet focuses on flexible protection:

• Segmented lobster tail neck guard for excellent freedom of movement.
• Articulated cheek plates to secure the face without restricting breathing.
• Distinctive segmented visor for ventilation and visibility.

A padded lining (sewn in sections) and an adjustable genuine leather chin strap ensure a secure and comfortable fit, even during long hours of wear.
