Product description
This sallet or salade is a replica of 15th-century originals. It features a movable visor and a long neck guard. The sallet comes in many different variations, with design adjustments to meet the wearer's needs. This type of sallet was developed for infantry, as it could be combined with a high gorget. These helmets were often quickly mass-produced during times of war due to the immediate and large demand. With a steel thickness of 1.6 mm, it is ideal for reenactment.

Maintenance & care
Prevent rust and corrosion by oiling your armour regularly. Remove rust easily with black sandpaper.
Tip: How to adjust the finish of your armour and weaponry
Luxurious (polished)- polish the steel with metal polish or toothpaste. You can even give the item a mirror-like polish. Test on a small surface first!
Handmade (matte)- soak the steel in cola for 40 minutes to 20 hours. Check regularly and treat with black sandpaper.
Antique (patinated) leave the steel to rust for some time in a damp environment, preferably outside. Remove the red layer of rust, to reveal the corroded top layer.
