Nice field of vision and breathability, one of the safest designed helmet.
Be safe in the list!
Excellent craft! the materials used aren’t random. the shield is stiched and layered for sturdiness. The sword is wrapped tightly and with care and the helmet has felt on the parts that will be touching skin which makes for longer training all in all a wonderful deal! love and peace!
Weighty, but the handle helps it maneuver better when whipping the blade around in a follow-up. It also gives you a range advantage in most profights. Only complaint is something in the blade is really resonant and so it can vibrate a lot on impact. Otherwise a great saber for profights.
I enjoy it a lot
Really nice item The only thing I would suggest would be to make denser foam for the top of the cone area at the top of the head something a little more rigid would be nice. All in all very nice quality as usual very happy with my purchase.
Really well made and at a great price point thank you Medieval Extreme once again!
