OVERVIEW

The hounskull, or houndskull, helmet has a snoutlike visor attached to a bascinet. This version has a round shape that was designed to deflect blows from any angle. The edges of the conical Bascinet are lined with drilled studs for attaching a mail aventail if you wish. Made with a cloth canvas liner for comfort and has a chin strap. The visor is secured with an adjustable leather strap and that wraps around the back of the neck. The visor can be removed if you want to wear the helmet open-faced. Hand-forged 18 gauge steel. Made by Noble Armoury.

A very knightly helm!
Good Lord do I like this! This helmet fits very well right out of the box and isn't so danged heavy you can't move your head! The only issue is the the pins that hold the visor on can come out of the hinge and fall off when you are taking the hemlet off or moving it around. I will probably drill a hole on the end and attach a chain or strap to keep them from getting lost! Well made helmet and it looks great!!! Having the integrated liner is a big plus!!

Hounskull helm
I just got this helmet yesterday, and true enough it’s a great buy. This fits extremely well and looks amazing.
While it’s true the visor doesn’t lift completely it still moves easily and comes with strapping to secure it around the back of the head. It’s also easy to see out of and came padded.
Overall, this is a great helmet for anyone. I highly recommend this hounskull as your next gear find.

Hounskull Helm
So this is not my first helm from MRL. Want to change up my look a little for the fairs. This one runs a little tighter then my first. But still very wearable. The visor does not even come close to lifting up enough to get it out of your way. But that is about the only draw back. worth every penny.

Good Helmet
This helmet is really well done. The visor can't be held up all the way but it looks good.
