16th-Century Close Helm
The armorer aimed to provide better and better protection
as the development of the helmet continued across the centuries. He
had comfort to fret over, too, since the safest helmet in the world
was totally useless if it didn't provide enough ventilation. The highly
functional and effective close helmet was created towards the end of
the era of the sword. This fully-operable replica has a leather liner,
hooks easily, and is very easy to wear.
