Hi all.

This helmet is not on ebay but on a norwegian auction site. I know the pictures is not very good but I hope you can give me your opinion.

Hi Doc:

I would steer clear of this one. The intended impression is a Sachsen Garde or Karabinier Reiter Offizier Küraßier helmet. However, the liner is wrong, the front visor should be stepped, and there should be a cloverleaf shaped ventilation hole in the spike neck. Finally, the chinscales are comically too long

If you'll excuse the pun, I think we're looking at a doctor job.

Tysk Pigghjelm (German Spike Helmet). It seems à propos, does it not? Tsk, tsk.

Chas.
