Looking good munitions grade Roman Calvary helm, preferably done in stainless.

Where is a good place to start looking for something like that?

You should ask Dierick here on the archive. I don't know if he is doing them right now becauss he had a few others to make. But he does an outstanding Roman in Stainless. But like I said he may already be doing some. He does very cool brass work on his.

I know you have asked me for one and I can likely help you, just cant help you now as I have a large amount of people in line.
If you are not in a rush we can work something out, if you need one asap I cant manage it.

www.westcoastarmory.com has on in size medium that I can personally attest is a very nice Roman cav in stainless.

West Coasts locking cheek system is great...and that helm looks good to boot.

Brand makes very sturdy, well-made helmets, but the lines of the Roman cav are just... not pleasing - and I think it is the locking cheeks that do it.

To each his own - and a Brand hat will keep your brains from getting scrambled - that is always a plus.

I have a beautiful roman calvary helm from Sir Brand. Got it a couple months ago. It is ridged, has fixed cheeks and a polished finish. Since I started my own helm and finally made up my mind to do a norse persona,
I could probably be talked into selling it.
It is mild steel 13 and 14 gauge.
Let me know if you are interested and I can send some pics.
I would take $400 plus shipping.

God, I thought I was the only one! I've always thought that the lines of some of the SCA Roman helms running around were some of the ugliest things I've ever seen.

Though I am a fan of this:
