Guardsman Helmet

The air cuts through your armour, chilling you down to your bones. Tonight there is rumor that the Wild Hunt rides, and while you know the superstitions and seem an unlikely challenger to the fae--you stand true to your post.

As a guard, you are dressed in uniform. From your Guardsman Helmet to your clearly marked tabard, it is your duty to stay and fight whatever may come...no matter the number or skill of your enemy.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Polished Steel Guardsman Helmet is a steel helmet inspired by German sallet helmets of the 15th century. The Guardsman Helmet’s brim is broad and steeply sloped in order to protect the head and face from weapons. Two eye holes in the brim allow for protected vision. Wear this helmet with a bevor for additional neck and face protection.

Secure the Guardsman Helmet by tightening the leather strap beneath the chin, keeping the helmet in place. Made of 1 mm thick mild steel and top-grain leather straps and fittings, this armour piece is built to withstand the abuse of a LARP or reenactment with regular leather and metal armour care.

HISTORY

• Similar in shape to a German sallet or an infantry Kettle Hat
• Provided the added benefit of protecting the eyes from sunlight
• Design was eventually replaced with the close helm and burgonet

Currently it's mandatory to wear fabric face masks which fulfill their purpose only if we all wear them in these difficult times. So why not at least look cool doing it?

The survival time of the virus on various surfaces led Wulflund to the production of these masks, a first on the market.
A solid duralumin construction has been chosen as standard plastics and stainless steel turned out to be materials with some of the longest survival rate of the virus whereas aluminium based metals performed better.

Customers note:

• Wear this over a proper, Covid compliant mask.
• This is not medical equipment
• The metal is easy to clean and disinfect, but does require cleaning and disinfection after use.
• This is arguably cooler than a cloth face shield :P

Wulflund was founded in 2005 probably as the first Czech pagan and re-enactor's shop.  Since that time we have devoted most of our life to this passion.  We know that a connection to our history is an essential part of our future.

Together with skilled smiths, armourers, jewellers and leather workers we established our own product line - especially weapons, armour and jewellery.  Our products are continually in a developemental process and they reflect the specific requirements of re-enactors during combat.  We deliver worldwide, indeed our arms and armour are sent to many members of the prestigious Battle of the Nations, which is an international Historical Medieval Battles (HMB) world championship.

Wulflund has two physical stores in Prague, we are worldwide retailers and manitain our own workshops.

The Morion developed from the Bascinet originally. The high dome is typical for this form. It was popular with pikemen, city militias and body/imperial guards.

You can still find it with the swiss guard of the vatican today.
