Knights and men-at-arms who wanted better visibility, ventilation and neck movement during battle liked this early bascinet design. Its beautiful shape and slightly pointed top made it a symbol of late-medieval warfare.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\\n\n\\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eArmor Arena carefully made this helmet to look just like the originals, which were strong and well-made. It also adds modern comfort. The smooth, rounded skull and tapered profile are great for deflecting blows and the open face style makes it easy to wear with a mail aventail or padded coif for a full historical look.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\\n\n\\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eWe offer this helmet in 14, 16 and 18 gauge mild steel or 18 gauge stainless steel if you want something that is easier to care for and won't rust. You can choose between a Dull Finish, which looks like it has been worn in a real campaign and a Mirror Finish, which looks polished and ready to show off. Each helmet has soft foam padding on the inside and a leather chin strap that can be adjusted and has a steel buckle to keep it secure.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\\n\n\\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThis helmet is great for LARP, SCA, medieval reenactment, cosplay, film, theater and collecting. It is a good mix of authenticity, protection and craftsmanship.
