I'm putting the buffe back on, so it has less of a "Cobra Commander" look..
...though Nissan recommended a ball-gag.

Here is a gallery I have of collected pictures. Most in it are pics of GOOD rapier helms. Pretty much none were taken by me, hence them being on an unlisted gallery:

(on Pennsic) I know that movie. It is the 13th warrior. A bunch of guys in armour that doesn't match itself or anybody elses, go on a trip and argue and get drunk and get laid and then fight Tuchux.

I've often thought a nice zischagge would be cool for SCA fencing.

For styles... think mostly late period. Burgonet would likely be a sure fire sale.

Be prepared to cuss though. The perf is a hoot to work with.
It looked better in my head....
