FULL JOUSTING AND COMBAT ARMOUR
This armour has all the bells and whistles. Protection with flexibility,
designed for hard core equestrian martial artists! Comprised of; an armet
helm with heavy duty latch (you pad) a bevor, a straight waisted, divided
cuirasse with a two lame fauld and two lame tassets, asymmetrical brasserts
with a left rondel, turners, clamshell gauntlet shells (No glove or fingers.
These are just shells and you pad them etc.) and equestrian legyrns. Making
this the best buy in the book. Totally designed for equestrian martial
arts this suit has more research and development than any other Blankenshield
product. Use this one to joust without a shield like I prefer to do or
strap a Blankenshield jousting shield to its left elbow. (I have to use
a shield for A.J.A. jousting but its fun any way). The rondel at the left
armpit covers that sweet spot that is the only sure unhorsing shot in
full contact jousting without a shield. (And that is exactly how we tested
this design). The armet helm has the same hook and staple as all Blankenshield
helms. The pauldrens, passguards, and couters are asymmetrical to maximize
protection from blows from the left. The greaves are slightly cut back
but hinged in two pieces providing both maximum coverage and minimum saddle
damage. Add a chainmail or banded mail skirt to this suit to make it suitable
for ground combat. I can't come up with better so this is what I wear.
