Description

Step into the world of medieval craftsmanship with the 14th Century Full Visor Bascinet Helmet. This exquisite helmet not only embodies the rich history of the medieval era but also serves as a functional piece for LARPing enthusiasts and reenactors. Whether you’re preparing for a theatrical performance or a historical battle reenactment, this bascinet is your perfect ally.

Crafted from sturdy 14 gauge mild steel, this helmet ensures the highest level of protection without compromising your mobility. The bascinet was a favored choice among heavily armored mounted knights due to its remarkable blend of strength and maneuverability. Its design allows for significant versatility, making it an essential addition to your medieval armor collection.

With a comfortable padded liner, this helmet is designed not only to protect but also to ensure you can wear it for extended periods without discomfort. The inner circumference of approximately 68 cm makes it suitable for head sizes between 58 cm and 61 cm, accommodating most adult males. If you plan to wear a padded cap underneath, consider measuring your head circumference while wearing it to ensure the perfect fit.

This helmet stands at a total height of 26.5 cm, featuring a visor measuring (26.5×33.5) cm. The base dimensions (when the visor is fully enclosed) are about (22×17.5) cm, providing ample coverage and defense against any opponents or rogue arrows. Each eye space—measuring approximately (0.9×0.8) cm—provides a clear line of vision while keeping you protected, allowing you to remain alert and aware during any critical moments.

One of the standout features of this helmet is its compatibility with our chainmail aventails, sold separately. By attaching an aventail using the provided vervelles, you can enhance your protection even further, making it a stellar choice for your next event. The chainmail aventail adds an extra layer of defense for your neck and shoulders without hindering your movement.

Upon arrival, you’ll notice the helmet is coated with a layer of oil. This protective layer is a safeguard against corrosion and rust during transit. It can easily be wiped away with any oil remover or a simple dry cloth, leaving your helmet ready for its grand unveiling.

The meticulous design and thoughtful features of the 14th Century Full Visor Bascinet Helmet present a fantastic opportunity to own a piece of history that doesn’t just look remarkable but also performs exceptionally well in reenactments or LARP events. Gear up with this impressive helmet and channel the spirit of medieval knights. Don’t miss out on the chance to own an essential piece of armor that blends history, craftsmanship, and functionality seamlessly.

  1. Absolutely thrilled with the 14th Century Full Visor Bascinet Helmet! The craftsmanship is top-notch — the 14 gauge mild steel feels both sturdy and surprisingly lightweight. I wore it during a recent LARP event, and it provided fantastic protection while still allowing me a full range of movement. Initially, I was concerned about the fit, but it turned out to be right on the money; I wear a size 60 cm hat, and it fit perfectly. The padded liner made wearing it for hours super comfortable, and I didn’t experience any discomfort at all. Plus, the visor adds a nice touch for visibility. Overall, this helmet exceeded my expectations in every way!

  2. I was absolutely thrilled with the 14th Century Full Visor Bascinet Helmet I purchased for a recent LARP event. When it arrived, I was blown away by the craftsmanship and quality—the 14 gauge mild steel is incredibly sturdy and feels like it can withstand any battle. During the event, I wore it for several hours and found it surprisingly comfortable, thanks to the padded liner that kept everything snug without causing discomfort. The visor is large enough to provide ample protection while allowing me to see my fellow participants clearly.

    One moment that truly tested the helmet’s durability was during a mock sword fight. Despite taking several hits, the helmet held up brilliantly; there were no dents or scratches afterward, reinforcing my confidence in its strength. It also paired perfectly with the chainmail aventail I bought separately, adding extra neck protection without restricting my movement. The only minor flaw I noticed was the initial layer of oil it arrived with. While it protected the finish during shipping, it required a quick clean-up before I could get started. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with this purchase. It exceeded all my expectations for functionality and quality, making my experience that much more immersive!

The craftsmanship is top-notch, showcasing sturdy 14 gauge mild steel while remaining surprisingly comfortable. I wore it for hours, and the padded liner made it easy to forget I had it on. It held up perfectly against light impacts and didn’t show any signs of wear. The vision was clear through the eye spaces, allowing me to stay aware of my surroundings. Overall, a fantastic investment for anyone serious about LARPing or reenactments!

  4. The 14th Century Full Visor Bascinet Helmet was a fantastic purchase! It arrived at my door just two days after ordering, and I was blown away by how well it was packaged. The sturdy box kept the helmet secure, and there was no damage at all. When I unboxed it, the first thing I noticed was the impressive craftsmanship. The metal felt solid in my hands, and the design truly reflected the medieval era. I couldn’t wait to try it on! The fit was perfect and comfortable, thanks to the padded liner. In my recent reenactment, it not only looked the part but provided great protection. I appreciated the oil coating, which kept the helmet in pristine condition during shipping. Allowing for easy cleaning, it was just a quick wipe away from being display-ready. Overall, it exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend it!

  5. The 14th Century Full Visor Bascinet Helmet truly impressed me. Upon receiving it, I couldn’t help but admire its craftsmanship—the sturdy 14 gauge mild steel gives an authentic feel. Wearing it during our last LARP event, it provided excellent protection while still allowing for mobility. I did have initial concerns about sizing, as my measurements were right on the edge of the recommended range. However, once I adjusted the padded liner, it fit snugly without being cumbersome, making it comfortable to wear throughout the day. I appreciated the visibility through the eye spaces, which were just right, enhancing my awareness on the battlefield. One small flaw was that the helmet came with a slight oil coating, which I found unnecessary, but it wiped off easily before the event. Overall, this helmet not only met my expectations but also exceeded them in terms of quality and functionality. I would recommend it to anyone looking for an impressive piece of medieval armor that balances history and practicality perfectly. It’s definitely worth the investment!
