Stainless Steel Sports Armour |
Sport armour is designed for reenactors, primarily the SCA, for use in sport combat. It is mostly 14th century to keep it simple. More 15th century items will be available soon. Sport armour has several options - choice of metal - Mild or Stainless, choice of light or heavy versions (18 gauge vs 16 for body armour, 14 vs 16 for helmets) and choice of finish. Level 1 finish is hammer finished and buffed, Level II has all hammer marks removed before buffing. Both of these finishes are quite bright in stainless. Metal and finish options are indicated for each piece. Level II finish is only available on some pieces, those with major domed and planished sections. Where appropriate, holes for strapping are already punched, but the pieces come unstrapped, except for internal straps that hold items together. All metal to metal rivets on stainless pieces are also stainless. Any leather to metal rivets are brass. More leg options and body armour coming soon. See helmet page for Sport Helmets.
