- My first armor review for my first piece of armor ever!
Here is a link to Aleksey Perebynos public page:

This was a titanium brigandine (brig) made by Aleksey Perebynos that I picked up for sale from someone in the USA. Check out my experience with it and what I think about it.
Let me know your opinions in the comment section below too! I'm still newer to this sport, about a year in now, so if something I said was wrong about the armor, can be expanded upon, or any ideas, likes and things to know, comment below!
Some extra details:
I paid $525 for this brig. It was a good deal, sometimes you pay more than that, sometimes less.

Xero shoes are the best around. I like them for medieval combat because they're flat like historically accurate shoes, but they work great during my workouts, cardio, and running!

Nice video review and nice Channel!I'm also waiting for One of the brigs from Aleksey, he Is great. Keep It up!
Thanks man! Such a good brig. Love your stuff as well!
we saw that :D
Mate, I’ve been toying with getting one made by him, and the few people I’ve spoken too locally have nothing but praise for Alex’s work.
I've heard it literally every time he's brought up, not even an exaggeration. His stuff just plain works well too.
Alex is literally the king of brigandine. I've spent the last 3 months researching armor parts and I've not seen anyone cheaper or have better quality, even the indian armor smiths who are willing to go super low sometimes can't keep up with his prices and quality.
You are awesome, glad to see reviews from guys who actually fight in armor (the other guys are amazing too, of course). Love it 😁
Thank you! Love doing it, and it helps spread the word. More to come! 🙂
Aleksey is making my full kit now. I can't wait!
I believe you are going to be quite pleased by it! Have you used any of his gear before?
@@GrantTheKnight Not yet. This will be my first harnes but everything but the boots and sabatons will be him.
@Chris Wilkins Nice! It's gonna be sweet!
Like 19👍🏾 Awesome review brotha! Great to hear it fits you👏🏾
Go get em!👊🏾
Thanks! That brig has done me better than any other piece of armor I own!
Great review!
Solid.
Never occurred to me that someone would be making them out of titanium. Awesome.
It's so much lighter too!
@@GrantTheKnight No doubt. Can you imagine if someone knew about titanium back in that era?
Whoever had it would have been winning more 😂
Hater comment. I totally left a bruise on you in that thing 😛😜. But seriously good review. What you said mirrors everything I've heard from others about his equipment.
You were one of the 2 hits that have actually hurt 😅🤣
@@GrantTheKnight I'm sure pay back is coming lol
Maybe one day eventually ⚔
Hey , I have a question
I'm from south Argenta ( good armor is very hard to come by here) I have a trip planned and I'm going to have a opportunity to have a set of arms and legs made to my measurements
I have te choice to have them done in titanium or hardened steel, what would you recommend?
Both options would be a huge upgrade for me ( mild steel is the norm here and my set wasn't made for me )
Would appreciate any advice , sorry for my inglish
It depends on what you’re going to do. A lot of people use titanium, it’s also lighter and will hold up fine in most things, but I’ve been told not to use it in team melee fights for international competition, as you really need the protection. On the flip side I’m pretty sure I know people who use titanium in international competitions lol.
@@GrantTheKnight thanks for taking the time to answer
International events will probably be few and far between for me ,so it's not my main concern
If protection is good enough for most cases I'm probably going to go with titanium for the weight difference
Thanks
Does anyone use lamellar? Or is not good or not allowed?
I’ve seen it once that I can remember and they got hurt bad. I wouldn’t recommend it outside of practices.
Armour looks cool, a mail shirt or brig. Unfortunately, I can't think of a practical use I might have to justify the expense.
Thanks! You can get substantially cheaper ones that you can't fight in for looks. But yeah, the cost is definitely a reason to keep fighting for sure. Still not as expensive as plenty of other hobbies though. 😅
Nice man, i also have one
It has served me so well, the one piece of armor I have literally no complaints about besides not fitted to me.
Titanium = mithril/mithral.
How does the weight compare to a steel brig?
It depends on your size and the brig style, but mine is about 14 lbs.
It would be nice to know how much you paid for it, even if it was used, to track resale value or compare used/new prices
I added both price and link to him in the description. Thank you for asking, didn't think to add those things! ⚔
What form of fighting do you do? I'm a scam fighter
I actually don't know what that is, had to look it up. I've done some modified HEMA (not claiming I know HEMA) and Muay Thai and BJJ though.
@@GrantTheKnight sorry it changed SCA to scam.
How long did he take to ship the brig? He said he was done last week and that he would send it by monday, but no word and being left on read :(
I actually picked mine up used off Facebook, but in dealing with others it can take a couple extra days sometimes. Aleksey is usually really good with communication compared to a TON of others, so I'd give it a day or two and send another message.
@@GrantTheKnight Yeah, I just find it odd that he promised to twice and hasn't yet with no comms when asked, maybe I'm reading too much into it. Thanks man.
I just got into the sport, is titanium allowed in rigs?
Yup, there are requirements on thickness in the rules depending on where, and I'd advise against titanium gauntlets. Check ACS/ACW/HMB rules depending on which you are doing.
@@GrantTheKnight Thanks for the reply, and pointing me in the right direction.
You're welcome!
Could you link his website?
Just added in video description, thanks for pointing out!
