{"product_id":"viking-nasal-helmet-18-gauge-spangenhelm-with-leather-liner","title":"Viking Nasal Helmet – 18 Gauge Spangenhelm with Leather Liner","description":"\u003ch2 style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eDescription:\u003c\/h2\u003eBefore the age of great helms and full face protection, the nasal helmet was the warrior's crown. Worn by Vikings, Anglo-Saxons, and Normans, it was the mark of a man who stood in the shield wall, who faced the charge, who earned his place in the mead hall through blood and iron. This reproduction captures that spirit with rugged simplicity and historical honesty. Constructed from 18-gauge carbon steel, this nasal helmet features a classic conical skull, built from overlapping steel plates joined by riveted reinforcing bands. The pointed geometry is designed to deflect blows, while the riveted Spangenhelm construction provides exceptional durability for reenactment, LARP, or display. A straight metal nasal guard is riveted securely to the brow, protecting the center of the face without sacrificing visibility. Inside, the helmet is lined with full-grain leather, offering comfort and a secure fit for extended wear. The adjustable brown leather chin straps with a metal buckle assembly ensure the helmet stays firmly in place, whether you are charging into combat or standing guard over your collection. Some superficial rust spots are visible on the exterior, consistent with age and storage, but the helmet is structurally sound and fully functional. This is a functional piece of armor, ready for the modern warrior.\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2 style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cli\u003e18-Gauge Carbon Steel Construction: Robust steel helmet with riveted overlapping plates and reinforcing bands.
