Are you looking for Crusader armour for both functionality and to provide you the best protection during the sword fight or re-enactment battle. Medieval Collectibles has both functional steel crusader armour and leather crusader armor. Our Crusader Knight armour comes in breastplates, bracers, greaves, paldrons, and arm armour. Many pieces of the armour have symbols of Templar Knights cross, Hospitalers cross and the Teutonic Knights cross on them. Knight armour is one of the most popluar types of armor used in movies, used in homes, and stage fighting and reenactment.
