Phoenix Knight Helmet for Buhurt Full Contact
Phoenix is a full-face knight helmet for buhurt/full contact, built on a widely used European ROA layout and finished with an original decorative overlay. A rigid front plate with slit vision and breathing perforation reduces direct facial hits, while the mail aventail covers the lower neck and collarbone line. Side straps help keep the helmet stable; steel/thickness options let you match your ruleset and weight preference.

Product description
Phoenix knight helmet is a full-face option for buhurt and full contact, built around a common European ROA-style layout. The core geometry is oriented toward historical sources and European late-medieval helmet prototypes, while the “Phoenix” overlay is a modern, fight-ready styling element.
Protection and durability
- Rigid full-face front helps reduce direct strikes to the face; vision slits sit recessed relative to the outer plane.
- Breathing perforation supports airflow without opening large vulnerable gaps.
- Mail aventail covers the lower neck and partly overlaps the collarbone line; works well alongside a gorget.
- Riveted overlay elements are service-friendly: hardware can be checked and replaced during routine maintenance.
Mobility and vision
- Slit vision is tuned for practical forward sight during engagements while keeping the faceplate closed.
- The aventail provides coverage while retaining usable head rotation in clinch work.
Fit and field use
- Strap retention helps stabilize the helmet; the fit is intended for use with a padded underlayer.
- Multiple steel/thickness options are available to balance weight and service life for your ruleset.
- Repairability: straps, buckles and aventail attachments are consumables and can be replaced without complex disassembly.
The design takes typical tournament inspection requirements into account (e.g., HMB, IMCF, SCA). Final acceptance always depends on the specific event rules and on-site inspection.
Care notes: dry after use, protect the steel with oil/wax, and periodically check rivets, straps and aventail fixation.
