A detailed hand-crafted masterpiece in 18 gauge high carbon stainless steel. Leather covered synthetic horns.
Medieval high quality helmets hand crafted in the old world style. Constructed of heavy gauge carbon steel these classic helmets are wearable especially with the cushioning cloth arming cap.
Viking helmets have been excavated from only three sites: Gjermundbu, Norway, Tjele Municipality in Denmark and Lokrume parish on Gotland Island, Sweden. The one from Tjele consists of nothing more than rusted remains of a helmet similar to the Gjermundbu helmet, the same goes for the one from Gotland. It is possible that many of the Viking helmets were made from hardened leather and ironstrips, since many Icelandic stories and Scandinavian picture stones tell and show warriors with helmets. It is also possible that helmets were inherited, instead of buried with the deceased, and went from father to son, and therefore stayed in a family for generations before eventually being turned into scrap metal or something else, like an axe.
