Kiev Mask Helmet – 10th Century Rus Helmet / Slavic Warrior Helmet
\nThe Kiev Mask Helmet is based on archaeological finds from the 10th century Kievan Rus territories, where Slavic warriors and Varangian mercenaries wore reinforced helmets that protected their whole faces. The unique design of the mask was meant to protect the face in close combat while still letting air and light through. \n \nYou can get this reproduction in 14, 16, 18 and 20 gauge mild steel or 18 gauge stainless steel if you want armor that doesn't need much care. You can get an authentic battlefield look with a dull (satin) finish or a mirror polish for ceremonial and display use. \n \nThe helmets all have built-in foam padding, a leather chin strap and a steel buckle to keep them on. They're ready for LARP battles, SCA combat, medieval markets, historical reenactments, movies and plays or even cosplay costumes based on Viking or Slavic warriors. \n \nThe full faceguard and open eye-slits make it easy to see and protect yourself. It's good for both fighting and acting as a character, like a Slavic soldier, Rus prince, Byzantine guard or Viking druzhina warrior. \nThis helmet is a striking example of how historical armor can blend artistry, utility and cultural legacy. It's an ideal addition to any serious collector’s trove or for anyone looking to immerse themselves in the medieval world.
