Birka Helmet, Viking Helmet for Medieval Reenactment

Birka Helmet – Legendary Viking Age Reconstruction

Experience the legacy of the Viking Age with our Legendary Birka Helmet, a masterful reconstruction inspired by the archaeological grave site of Birka, Sweden. This helmet has been beautifully reimagined and hand-crafted to reflect the artistry and strength of the original find — perfect for collectors, reenactors, and Huscarl warriors alike.

Each piece is made from 2.3mm+ heat-rolled mild steel, offering exceptional durability for Eastern and Huscarl-style combat. The surface is adorned with hand-etched brass panels and punched brass detailing, meticulously replicating the authentic Viking designs discovered at Birka.

The interior features a full leather harness and adjustable chin strap for comfort and secure fit. You may also choose between no maille, half maille (sides and back), or full maille (covering face, neck, and back). For enhanced protection, we can also add a face grid / protective grill upon request.
