Morion Helmet Face Plate | Handmade Steel Helmet
Price range: 360.00$ through 415.00$
The Morion helmet is an iconic piece of armor that exudes strength and historical significance. Crafted from sturdy 16-gauge thick steel, this helmet offers exceptional protection to its wearer while also showcasing intricate design details.
The helmet’s defining feature is its distinctive fixed visor, which serves as a protective barrier for the face while adding an air of intimidation to its appearance. The visor is complemented by a perforated face plate, meticulously crafted with small holes or openings that allow for both ventilation and visibility.
Its robust construction, fixed visor with a perforated face plate, and attention to detail in design make it a captivating artifact from history, preserving the essence of an era when armor was as much about utility as it was about making a formidable impression on the field.
The perforated plate in both the Mild Steel and Stainless Steel variants of the helmet will be crafted exclusively from mild steel. Nevertheless, upon request, the plate can undergo a blackening process to prevent rust formation.
