VIKING HELMETS
Our Viking helmets are all made in Europe from 16-gauge (1.5mm) or thicker steel using traditional hammer
and anvil. Each is hand made to order.
Our helmets are designed to withstand a full-contact blow from a blunt re-enactment (steel) sword, but it is sensible to wear padding
(e.g. a thick felt cap) to avoid the possibility of concussion.
Each comes complete with an adjustable leather chinstrap.
The bowl of the helmet is hammered into shape by hand, either in two pieces with an invisible weld,
or else in four pieces with a riveted (spangen)
construction. Finishing is by wire brush to give a lustrous sheen.
