New spangenhelm on the market?
#2
It's been on CelticWebMerchant for a few years. All in all, it's not that bad.

Baldenheims were much fancier, or at least all of the ones we've found are. It's highly likely simpler versions existed.

Issues:
1. Chainmail neckguard. These were used, yes, but the chainmail is rather large (8mm) and seems to be butted.
2. Lack of a Nasal. The Baldenheim's didn't have a complete "Nasal" but the rim followed the shape of the forehead.

All in all, not bad. I say its acceptable, but frankly Matt Amt made a Baldenheim out of dumpster trash (quite literally, actually) so if you have the skill, its easier to make your own (same applies to banded helmets and ridge helmets).
