Some armour designs were nearly universal across Europe during the Middle Ages. The Norse Steel Spangenhelm recreates one of the most common helmets. This steel helmet has the distinctive nasal guard and an antiqued finish. Steel strips cross the top of the cap and line the bottom edge. Rivets join the strips and the nasal guard to the base. The Viking helmet attaches to the wearer with a leather head strap that adjusts with a buckle. This medieval helmet is wonderful for historical reenactments or cosplay events.

This is a solid helmet. It looks and feels functional. It’s also a bit large. It’s wide and the nose pieces sits well away from the face.
It has a padded interior support if you want to wear it, but unless you have a large head or a lot of hair, you may want to wear additional layers under it to fill out your profile and make it more secure.
