One down-side of this one, is that they copied the mail aventail from the museum piece, which was almost certainly added later, and not part of the original helm from the 14th century.
Sir Jason Simonds:
Yeah, i was gonna pull off the mail part.
Looking at the pictures it looks like the whole thing is painted, i sent a message to them for some clarification as the description says blackened steel with brass accents.
Sir Brian:
It most assuredly would need a liner of some type.
Sir Jason Simonds:
Main thing is that it appears to be the correct shape for a Pembridge Great helm.
If it is just painted I am going to strip all the paint off, may even remove the 3 vertical strips and replace with real brass.
