Practical question here.
Brass/bronze is softer than steel/iron. What, if any, advantages are there over a brass/bronze helmet over a steel/iron helmet, beside personal preference and appearances?
Any historical note of legionaries using there helmets like the old U.S. Army steel pot helmet for shaving, hygiene, and cooking?
Cheers
Mike
