14th century Knight Bascinet Fully Functional BATTLE READY Steel Helmet 16 gauge

Are you looking for a versatile, FULLY FUNCTIONAL helmet for your next tournament or battle? Directly inspired by 14th-century sources, this visored BATTLE READY Bascinet will make an excellent choice for a knight like you as its carefully designed visor ensures minimal vision loss and breathing hindrance.

Our interpretation is inspired by several different sources, including a 1407-1408 painting by Spinello Aretino, the fresco in the Affresco camera Pinta in Spoleto, Italy, and the manuscript “La prima deca” by Tito Livio dated circa 1373 and nowadays in the Biblioteca Ambrosiana at Milan among others.

It is HANDMADE from 16-gauge mild steel, lined with a comfortable and secure PADDED LINER. A circumference of approximately 68 cm makes it fit almost all head sizes. And a sturdy chin strap closed with a lovely buckle will help keep your helmet in place during all your battles. Note: This product is carefully coated with a layer of oil when packaged that acts as a temporary (protective) layer against corrosion (rust), which can easily be wiped off using any oil remover or even a dry cloth.
