You get what you pay for, but with a White Mountain, you get a little more than what you pay for.

I love my WMA kettle.

Having said that Knotwolf also makes gorgeous kettles too.

I love my White Mountain. The Kettle is the best war hat out there. Mine started off in bare steel, and I ended up decorating it myself. Just don't be afraid to experiment with finished. I've seen some beautiful painted helms.

Vogt Handcrafts made my kettle (Adam was injured when I wanted mine, so I had to go elsewhere). I've been VERY pleased with Matt's craftsmanship and attention to detail.
