I have been considering getting it actually cause it looks light enough to not be too heavy and is still period as a knightly helm. But for now I will stick to my kettle helm as I got proof now that the kettle helm was used by German Knights.

I know the one you're talking about... that 'secret' helm; more like a skullcap.  I don't have one, otherwise I'd send it to you to try it out.

I guess better to have one that's invisible, than to have one that is four feet wide, like the guy in grey kneeling on the right side of the image. :)

You guys are hilarious! I'm actually in the picture. I am wearing a full set of armour assembled from the GDFB "hidden" helm.

I wanna try that helm, just not sure if it's too thick and heavy like the other GDFB helms.
