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.”

Both are beautifully made with a great balance points, allowing for fast responsive movements.
They fit like a second skin. Would always recommend them to my mates. 👍
Exactly what I ordered. The padded set fits gloriously. Floating is a bit of an adjustment, and even though I lost quite a bit of weight between ordering and receiving, the whole set still fits wonderfully! Zero complaints and would absolutely order again.
sword is beautiful and worth every penny
