Viking Spectacle Helmet
DescriptionYou are laughing too loudly. You realize it must be scaring your enemy, because no one wants to face you on the front line anymore. They think you are mad. Perhaps you are, for the adrenaline of being in battle has left you drunk with euphoria.
If no one comes to you, it is time to fight them! A poor soldier attacks you desperately and you feel the blow of his sword against your Viking spectacle helmet, but it barely leaves a scratch. You see the terror in his eyes as your laughter fills the field and you bring the force of your axe down upon him.
You are Raynor Ironshood. Let them fear you. Let them all fear you.
DETAILS
Epic Armoury's Viking spectacle helmet is a skull helmet inspired by 10th-century Vikings. The "spectacle" guard over the eyes provides great protection for the face while still allowing the wearer good vision. Reinforced with rivets, a combed apex, and a steel band around the edge, you can expect this helmet to withstand the Roman Empire and its lesser states.
Secure the Viking spectacle helmet by tightening the leather chin strap, keeping the helmet in place. Crafted from 1mm thick mild steel and premium leather straps and fittings, this piece of armor is designed to withstand the abuse of a LARP or reenactment with regular leather and metal armor care.
Available in medium and large sizes.

Maintenance
Epic Armoury metalworks products should be treated with quality acid-free wax or vegetable oil and stored in a dry place. Metal armor containing leather parts would require separate maintenance for the leather. Read the "Leather straps and fittings" section below for leather cleaning and maintenance with leather care products.
Degreasing and preparing your armor for use
When you open your armor, you may be overwhelmed by the smell of grease and oil. Oil has been applied to protect your armor during storage and transport. Use a degreasing product or mineral spirits and a dry cloth or paper towels to remove all oil from the plate armor pieces. It is a bit harder to remove all the oil from chainmail links, but it can be done in the same way. Wipe off as much as you can with a dry cloth, and for the remaining oil, you can remove the grease from the chainmail with mineral spirits or another solvent by spraying it onto the links. You can also choose to completely submerge your chainmail in a degreasing product and use your hands to agitate the metal in the solution; this will completely remove all oil and grease from your links. After removing the oil, be sure to dry the armor thoroughly. Strong, warm sunlight is excellent for drying your armor, but you can also use a hairdryer or a heat gun to speed up the process. Be careful not to overheat any leather parts when using a heat gun.
Cleaning
Humidity is the enemy of armor and chainmail. If your armor gets wet, it is important to dry it thoroughly as soon as possible. After handling, wearing, or after six months of storage or display, all metal should be wiped down with a clean cloth. Lightly grease the clean surface with a quality acid-free vegetable oil. Alternatively, you can apply a layer of wax to the entire exposed metal surface. Let the wax dry for a couple of hours and then lightly buff it with a soft cloth.
Prevention and removal of rust
Store your armor in a dry place and check it every two months for signs of rust. If you find any, remove it by gently rubbing the affected spot with a lightly abrasive pad dampened with wax or quality acid-free vegetable oil. Epic Dark products are specially treated to resist rust, but should still be treated with oil and stored in a dry place.
Leather straps and fittings
Clean them by removing dirt with a stiff brush, then gently rub with leather soap and a clean, damp cloth until the leather looks clean. Remove the soap with a separate damp cloth to clean off any soap residue and then use a dry cloth to wipe any remaining water from the leather.
You should always condition the leather after cleaning it, as the soap will have removed some of its natural oils. Treat the leather with mink oil, olive oil, or beeswax with a clean cloth, gently rubbing a small amount of oil or wax into the leather in circular motions. Let the leather soak up the oil before wiping it down with a final clean cloth to remove excess residue.
