| | | War Hat - Kettle Hat | Called by many names,
chapel de fer, war
hat or kettle hat,
the broad brimmed,
open face helmet was
the most popular of
all helmets for
fighting on foot. The
broad brim shields
blows from hand
weapons, and offers
protection from
missiles from above.
Although it did leave
the face vulnerable,
many preferred the
vision and access to
air to the protection
offered by covered
helmets.
18 gauge steel
construction. An
important helmet in
the development of
armor. Weight: 4 lbs.
3 oz. Comes with
leather strap and
liner.
