I thought that at first, but then I realized it would be best for it to be underneath, since if it was on top, a weapon glancing off of the breastplate could slip under and into your neck. Unless of course it was attached to the breastplate, or it was nested into and behind a stopping rail (I forget what those are called).
@@jjc173 it’s a bevor, it’s throat protection but a little more specific. The Bevor is the lower armor for a sallet. While a gorget is throat protection for armor, the second layer of armor on a great bascinet would be a gorget. This is just a different way of wearing the bevor it can come strapped to the breastplate look at some of graham turners artwork.
This “”durr only noble afford armor”” ideal is pure hogwash. It was true in the ancient periods and early Medieval era, But saying it about the 15th century is idiotic. 15th century people were more then able to afford this armor. Most chronicles from the 15th and 16th centuries show soldiers in full armor.
@@mr31337 No, it isn't clickbait. This is what the armour was like in the fifteenth century :)! It is a near exact replica, made to fit the person in the video. Armour is bespoke, and wearing an ancient set could damage the artifact, so craftsmen make beautiful and lovingly crafted replicas like this one.
@@necroseus clearly the title should be, "Reproduction late 15th century armour". Is the armor fascinating & nice, yes, but absolutely that isn't the point. The title misrepresents the video, and it can easily be fixed by adding "reproduction" (or similar) to the title. Not adding "reproduction" is a deception, intended or otherwise, but a deceptive title is the definition of clickbait.
@@mr31337 Ehm.. Okay? This isnt deception at all. The title is perfectly descriptive of the style of armour. No where does it say it's an authentic set of historically made kit. This title is fine for both cases (historical or reproduction), and is not clickbait. If the title was "Genuine Armour from 15th c. Italy," or something similar, then this would absolutely be clickbait. But that isn't the case. Have a good day or evening :)
Beautiful. This video needs more views.
Agreed!
Incredible craftsmanship!!
This is so sick. Dude has a whole ass squire with him.
Great video, outstanding armor. Just amazing.
Beutiful set of armor.
"Is it bulletproof?"
@@joeerickson516
yup
@@joeerickson516alot of 16th century plate armours were completely bulletproof
@@BrodyAlsonzeat the cost of being softer if i remember
@@Ose-here yes, but as firearms became implemented, the more resilient and deflected late armors became, even its softness could protect from regular sword blows
This should be a dark souls commercial
Simply beautiful
the soundtrack fits perfectly and transports the vibe of being in late 15th! wow!
Beautiful
Please tell me where you acquired this armour, it is immaculately made and perfectly emulates the late 15th century style!
That's absolutely stunning.
Riveted maille - good. Interesting that they used to ear the gorget both under and over the breast plate.

I'm more of a fan of gothic armour but this is exquisite 😻
What I wouldn't do for a set of that!

Nice
The wonders of the past
Sabaton articulated tongues inside the greaves, please.
And to think that in those times it all started with pieces of bloom iron...
And they didn't even pull the visor down...
Mega epic super! 👍😎
could you tell me the song name please?
Kid Rock gonna drive off the invaders XD
Боюсь представить Цену этого комплекта....
Wait I’m confused, shouldn’t the gorget go over the cuirass ?
No that’s a holywoodism, historically they we’re usually under the cuirass
@@Jerre_Pelzig Yeah, you wouldn't want the gorget sliding around overtop the cuirass.

Nobles, kings could afford this armour.

Nice shoes (sabatons)
Is there a wire protection for the eyes?
No
Thats a sallet, the visor comes down.
could you believe this vid is done by someone has only 77 subs?
👏👏👏
It's in really great condition for being so old.
I think this is a modern reproduction of historical armour, not actual armour from the middle ages. It's incredibly well made and accurate, though.
@@necroseus then the title is clickbait

my issue with armor, is that they never protected their inner thighs or groin. both of which expose the femoral artery
