- it has the wider eye slots and the breathing holes...and although it is painted red and white, I'm sure i you paint the white part black it'll fit in with your colors quite well. Just a thought.
Sir Wolf:
looks nice

Definitely possible - I've seen armets / close helmets float around the $2k mark, and that's for mild steel - spring steel or stainless, and it'll be even higher.

James is right on. Heat treated spring helmets are going to be in that price range easy. Not for a Norman or a Kettle maybe, but for the Armet you're describing, assuming it's spring, he got off light staying under 2k.

Is that a decent arming coif? I already have a GDFB one but it's got foam and it isnt very flexible or good at all, it's just a piece of foam covered in canvas and doesnt flex at all.
