Crass commercial announcement follows.
I purchased a Stainless Steel Varangian Locking Kettle Helm from West Coast Armoury and it came in yesterday. Unfortunately, it's just a little too small for me, presses in too much on the sides. So, Brand is going to make me a replacement.
Yes, this is for Heavy Combat.
Before I send it back, I told Brand I'd see if anyone around the Wyewood area is interested in buying it from me for what I paid. You can see it on his website, westcoastarmoury.com , under the Early Medieval Helmets section (since can't attach images here).
Brand is going to be closing down West Coast again for health reasons. So, this is likely a last chance to get one of his helms new. I currently have 2 of his helms, have had 1 Roman Praetorian Helm in the past (sold it many years ago), and so this will be my 4th helm from him.
While it is brand new, never been used, padded, etc., there is one small issue in that USPS managed to put a small dent in the top (of 14 ga. Stainless Steel no less).
Since I have ~23.5" oval shaped melon, it will probably fit someone with less than a 23" head.
Price: $845
If no takers, or interest, by the end of this month, then I will be shipping it back on December 2nd.
