My grandson asked for this for his birthday (I though it was a little silly). I was surprised at the heft and quality for the money.

Absolutely love this for my suit of armor. Perfect for renaissance festivals and LARP. Caution though. Thicker-neck people may want to skip this. I have a 17-inch neck and there wasn't much room left. Very oily when received, but for any metal-based product, this is to be expected. The visor will not stay open. But all in all, a great buy.

Feels good Does the job

Well crafted. Very oily but I cleaned it mostly. The only issue is that this helmet is made for giant heads. I am 5 feet 7 inches tall and this helmet does not fit me very well. Its very wobbly and it is awkward to wear. That was my mistake, had I made sure it was my fit it would have been perfect. Anyways 5 stars because I have no complaints other than the size but as I said it was my mistake. If it fits you, you will be satisfied in my opinion. It comes with a small stand to put it as decoration.

I bought this as a gift to a man, I don't know. I walked by and witnessed him escort a young lady to her car. The weather in the U.P. of Michigan can be brutal. He was chivalrous. I asked him if he had a suit of armor. He smiled and said, no. That's, why he owns it now.

my visor would not stay up other than that its brilliant

I really like this helmet. It's well crafted, and properly made.However, this helmet had a few downsides -While you can wear chainmail under it, you'd likely need an arming cap to wear underneath the chainmail. Hoodies chainmail wont make the helmet fit. Another big downside is it came a little rusty, which can be a huge deal breaker. For me, I wanted a worn look so I don't mind it.Another downside is that if you have a massive head, (like myself) your chin will have to rest on top of where the visor sets, which can get super uncomfortable after a while.In conclusion, great helmet, well made - but can be a bit overly clunky and can get rusty.

Thank You

Nope

This is an okay item, if you want to spend hours getting all of the oil off and making sure the paint that the oil has removed is gone as well. No stand included which it claimed there was on. I would think there would be better deals out there for this price. Made to display not to wear.
