Buhurt Gorget for Reliable Neck Protection
A buhurt gorget provides essential neck, throat, collarbone, and upper-spine protection during full-contact armored combat. Designed for buhurt, Buhurt International (ex HMB), and similar fighting formats, this articulated protector combines overlapping metal plates with a flexible leather foundation. It helps absorb and distribute the force of blunt weapon strikes without unnecessarily restricting head or shoulder movement.
Overlapping Plates Built for Armored Combat
The gorget uses 1 mm overlapping plates to maintain coverage as you move, grapple, and change position. The collar is rigid, and its segmented construction shields vulnerable areas around the neck and collarbone. An adjustable strap and reinforced arming points secure the gorget to a compatible armor kit, reducing unwanted movement during combat.
Titanium or Hardened Steel
- Material: titanium or hardened steel
- Weight: 0.895 kg (1.97 lbs) in titanium or 1.175 kg (2.59 lbs) in hardened steel
- Plate thickness: 1 mm
- Leather thickness: 4 to 5 mm
- Foam thickness: 8 to 10 mm
Choose titanium when minimizing armor weight is the priority. Select hardened steel for dependable protection and traditional durability. Both versions incorporate internal foam padding that helps reduce shock and improves comfort during training, tournaments, and extended wear.
Secure Fit with Comfortable Internal Padding
Measure your neck circumference while wearing your gambeson to obtain the correct fit. The thick leather base supports the articulated plates, while internal foam padding cushions the gorget against the body. Before entering an event, check that your helmet, aventail, gorget, and body armor work together without leaving exposed gaps.\
MedievalExtreme workshop guidance: “Effective neck protection must remain securely positioned and preserve overlapping coverage throughout the fighter’s complete range of movement.”
Order your gorget for buhurt from MedievalExtreme, a Ukrainian team of experienced fighters, armorers, and crafters producing battle-tested equipment for full-contact combat.

Light, compact, and fingers feel safe AF
Super light compared to a regular gauntlet, but still gives really solid protection where it matters. Great for shield work because it doesn’t feel bulky or slow you down, and the fingers stay well covered even when things get rough. Exactly what I wanted from a shield mitten.
Very well made and very comfortable to wear. Came with my name written on one of the inside plates. Came with fun stickers as well, which is always a plus! It was a little small, but I think that might’ve been an issue on my end as I guessed I would need about an extra inch as I didn’t have my Gambeson yet. It is still effective and able to be used, just tight if fully buckled over my gambeson. Very stylish, very comfortable, good craftsmanship, fun note and stickers, nice touch with the name. Overall I am more than satisfied!
Brig is amazing fits perfectly and looks stunning ordered the titanium skirt with it as well now the kit is complete
