Bascinet Houndskull with onion top
The houndskull was a form of bascinet with a visor covering the entire face. It is the visor which gives the helmet its name, as this resembles the face of a dog ("hound" or, in German, "Hund"), with a protruding muzzle in order to better protect the face from blows and to grant greater ventilation (which was largely afforded the wearer, when the visor was down, through holes in the "muzzle," such holes being either on the right side of the "muzzle" with additional holes near the mouth, but could also be on both sides). This model goes with liner and leather strap for avantaille. Hand-crafted from 14ga mild steel Painted inside Polished Padded-liner included Hand made steel buckles High quality leather straps Bronze cast vervelles Belt lock for visor to avoid opening during the battle Eyeslots are less than 1" Producing time: up to 2 months Shipping time: 10-15 working days
