Product Overview
The rounded shape of the "Sugar Loaf" Helm caused sword blows to skate off the top, so that the knight had to absorb less of the force of the blow. This was a distinct improvement over the "standard" great helms of the day. This style of great helm was the principal helm for the armoured knight for many years. Hand made from 4 pieces of 16 gauge steel by Windlass Steelcrafts in India. Wt.-5 lbs. 14 oz. #9-785...$179 ($9.95 s/h) CIRCA 1250
