The Couters elbow caps are crafted from durable 16 gauge steel, for event and costume use. The polished mirror finish gives them a striking look, making them visually appealing.

These Medieval Steel Couters truly exceeded my expectations! Worn during our recent reenactment, they held up beautifully. Their robust build provided excellent protection while retaining a comfortable fit thanks to the adjustable laces. Even after hours of activity, they showed minimal wear, demonstrating exceptional durability. The polished finish added an authentic touch that impressed everyone. A minor downside is that they can be slightly heavy for newcomers, but once you’re used to them, they’re fantastic!
