ok i'm starting it. Sir Wolf's 1340's kit
Sir William:
So he does...at least, I noticed it in one of his pics. Sir Edward, do you like yours? I'm thinking of getting one...
Sir Gerard de Rodes:
Sir William, the combination of arming cap, maille coif, cervelliere and great helm is something I think I might have tried once for combat, never again, the weight is unbearable lol.
I do put them together for show and tell now and agai, when I have the room in my arming chest to transport it all. ;)
The open faced bascinet with aventail is very nice to wear if not a little weighty on the neck at first. A chin strap is a must as the bascinet can ride down and cut at the bridge of the nose. :P

Sir Brian:
I actually tried Sir Edward's set on shortly after he received it and found it fairly comfortable but a bit heavy. :)
Sir William:
Is it that much heavier than your greathelm?
Sir Edward:
It's doubly heavy since they made the aventail pretty weighty too. But it's pretty comfortable and surprisingly good for an MRL offering (which explains why they had put it on clearance).
