Butted Mail Armor Coif
|
|||||||||||
|
Butted steel coif can be worn with or without a helmet. 16 gauge steel; 3/8 inch rings. From the Celts of 300 B.C. to 18th century Europe, mail was one of the most prized items a warrior could own. Indeed, it was celebrated in poetry and the sagas, being referred to as the "War Shirt of Odin", the "Byrnie, hard and hand linked", the "Net of Battle", and "Foe of Swords". Intense craftsmanship combines links in the "International" pattern - 4 links going through a 5th - common to all European mail. Made by Windlass Steelcrafts (who produce our helmets). Please, note: your coif will come in a thick coat of oil as a protectant, but even this is no guarantee that some surface rust may occur. You will find cleaning instructions included.
