For sale. SCA list legal helmet. 14 gauge blackened stainless throughout with Raymond's Quiet Press brasses and 1/4" mild roundstock grill work which passes the one inch dowel test. 29 inch inner circumference with wedge riveted mild chainmail drape. This was a lot of work and I'm happy with how it came out.
Open to reasonable offers. Will trade in part for a welded stainless hauberk to fit my 48" barrel chested self.

Thank you! If I weren't already working on it's brother, I might have considered making a new persona to fit it.
P.S. The lower bar grill attachments are raven heads. If I find close up pics, I'll post them.

Thank you, accdntprone! I'm really loving dark age helmets! I hope to crank out some Norman and Rus conicals soon. I'm looking into making my own pressblech, too.

Changed the listing title as there seems to be some interest. I may be open to trading in part for a B2 shear in good shape but be aware of shipping costs to and from Alaska. PM me with any questions. I may be posting some shots of me wearing this helmet with my current kit if I can talk my Wife into being photographer.

Thank you, Murnig. I felt a bit cheeky asking that price but several of my friends chastised me greatly and reminded me to charge for my time.

Have you tried selling it on the SCA Armour/For Sale facebook group? There seems to be a lot of activity there.

Responded to PMs. This is a new, unused helmet. Not strapped or padded. I wore my temporary padding for the pics.
