The Houndskull Bascinet (Pig-faced is a later term) was popular in the late 14th and early 15th centuries. The pointed visor provided a deflecting surface for blows to the face and also improved ventilation. This syle of helmet was typically worn with an Aventail and attachment points are provided in this version.  Crafted in 16 ga. steel, 1.6mm steel leather lined and ready for actual wear.
