The Maker
Deepeeka
Deepeeka creates an astonishing variety of replica weapons, armor, and re-enactment accessories that range from Classical Antiquity to the 20th Century. Deepeeka has been crafting replicas since the 1980s and their products are essential gear for many re-enactment groups. Many swords, daggers and other weapons made by Deepeeka are durably crafted and budget-friendly offerings. The steel is good and well-tempered and their leathercraft and woodworking are of excellent quality. Deepeeka’s products are handcrafted and (in the case of blades, hand-hammered) are a good deal for those who want a quality item at a good price.

Often paired together
A very cool helmet, with some strangely poor-quality elements. Almost as soon as I unwrapped the helmet, a) the two domes on the neck guard anchoring the handle were wobbling all over the place and b) the plate on the crest of the helmet was loose and spun around freely. Both were attached with very low-effort/quality metal loops and nothing else. I’m honestly not exactly sure what Deepeeka was thinking with that design choice, as it really cheapens the feel of an otherwise solid helmet. That solid feeling is one of the things I like about Deepeeka products even if they can be a bit sloppy with the execution at times.
ALL OF THAT SAID, these were easily fixable issues and it was honestly a fun crafting project to figure out improvements. I ended up basically replicating the metal loops (which does seem faithful to the original this replica is based on: https://www.christies.com/en/lot/lot-6455235) but with much better and more sturdy cotter pins, less than a dollar each at Ace Hardware. After some bending and hammering, the loose pieces are much more sturdy. With that fixed it feels much higher quality. So in short, it’s definitely a fixer-upper, which is a bummer for a helmet of this price. But it’s an easy fix at least.
