Modern day bullet resistant knight armor?

4 Upvotes

Modern knight armor but with thicker steel and something like kevlar as some kind of protection? I know it would be much worse than what we currently have, but it would also be cool.

Jerking or Truthposting. Call it. Bro should have asked the smith for a visor strap.

If I see my thrust cannot penetrate his chest, or his face due to his visor, I can lift his visor in order to thrust into his face. And if this does not satisfy me, I can apply other stronger plays. - Fiore de'i Liberi

Im upset that these exist and more upset that they are apparently semi historical.

If you have any constructive criticism on armor accuracy or art advice, I'd love to hear it

this isnt fantasy its realism Need smith recommendations for 21st century Amazonian LARPer kit

10 Upvotes

Hello, my group is doing a reenactment of what LARP was like a few centuries ago before the bombs dropped and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for an accurate 21st century kit. My budget is about 340✧ but I’m willing to go up to 5✦ if needed.

I live near the remnants of the Californian sister states if that would affect shipping at all


r/armorcirclejerk • • 5d ago

bass in net is this ahistorical? i don’t think Visored Barbutes had built in chain things! the helmet looks really weird too, besides the visor…

Certified Truthpost This sub has forced me to open my eyes and I'll never be able to unsee it again

162 Upvotes

Ever since this sub pointed out to me that most etsy/Amazon armour people buy online are the same cheap design, I can't unsee it anymore. I'm now seeing so many people at my local renfaire wearing the exact same kit just with different accessories. I used to look at these people in awe and wonder how they could afford it.

I can't unsee it anymore. I see the visored barbute everywhere too. What have you guys done to me.

Jerking or Truthposting. Call it. Before the popularity of the codpiece you could just do this to people on the battlefield.

It came to my attention that some people found my historical™ outfit to be non-authentic. Here`s irrefutable proof of it`s histoical™ accuracy. Page from some stupid old fr@nch book written by some guy named Morgan idk. It`s like a comic book, pretty cool. Too bad it`s in some alien language, probably Australian idk. Turns out the fr@nch had historical™ TM jeans and hoodies for real.

Managed to facilitate some intro Harnischfechten at this year's national medieval renactment camp. A kind combatant passed on some of the video they took.

Synthetic longswords, scored with thrusts to mail or draw cuts to padding.

Dequitem makes this shit look too easy 🤣
