THIS helmet is available on KOA for $47.**. I used the liner from another helmet that was too tight, added leather 'dog-ear' cheek flaps and a leather chin cord. Fits like an old, worn out Stetson hat. Really 'merc'-looking.  Â I like the simple look of the cone helmets. Would prolly deflect the force of sword blows really well too |

I got this helmet at the GA. ren fest from a guy I was talking to. He said he made helmets and had a few to sell, It was so crazy I couldnt resest it.I know it's more fantasy than true to ever being worn by a warrior but it gets a lot of pictures taken of it.  |

Fantasy alright, but someone wearing this and surprise charging you out of the night... Woo!
Nice handles to twist off his neck too  |

True enough, Chaos. Or something more recent, haven't played in 10 years.

If you're planning on using a bow go for the kettle type over a nasal type helm. The nasal type will throw off your depth perception. I have both types and prefer the kettle type when shooting and the nasal for melee.

Ended up picking up a Nasal helmet haha. Mostly cause it was only 65$ Canadian, made from windlass, and one of the designs I liked most as far as function goes

Or better yet, if I can convince my knife store to stock them and wait till the price drops 😂 |

You'll enjoy that Epic Armoury Norman. I have their Sugarloaf Great Helm and German Gothic Sallet, both in the darkened finish. They are basically maintenance-free. I've had them for several years now, and not a speck of rust. Same with my full suit of darkened Epic Warrior armor. Great stuff! |

I tried put on my best mean face  I look like a bird *edit* Turns out that with padding, the Nasal part only goes to the bottom of the node and not to the chin like mine is in the pic |
