In my opinion, the medieval knight would've absolutely made their armor from titanium if they'd had it available at the time. Since you are doing real martial arts in this armor I think it's more than reasonable to make it a suit of safety equipment instead of reenactment. I was surprised to see how much of the suit was titanium, i imagine it was expensive!

I can say that a lot of the characteristics of his armor are true to reality. A few of my location placements might be off or unspecific, but a lot of arm and leg protection was quite similar throughout all of Europe. Things like forearm protection rarely changed, with only really helmets, cuirasses, and occasionally pauldrons being set-in-stone location identifiers. Even still, sometimes Italians made Gothic (German) style armor. You really can't be sure, but I've tried to hit the mark on original territory as best as possible. His more "composite" helmet with the rondels on the sides is a variation of a German bicoque helm of the mid-1400s. Helmets like it can be found in the manuscript "Lives of Saints Edmund and Fremund", and there is an extant bicoque helmet in the Deutsches Historisches Museum. The only thing strange about it is that it opens in the manner of a close helm rather than an armet, but a few depictions of it indicate that variations of it could've opened like that, as articulation is not specified in many of the paintings. His cuirass looks English, and is fairly historical aside from the additional groin-plate, butt-plate, and toned backplate, there are many extant examples, but a few similar ones can be found in the manuscript "Guiron le Courtois", with the only difference being the plackart for articulation. The cuisses are English as well, with "cased" greaves, and a good depiction of them can be found in the manuscript "Le pèlerinage de la vie humaine". His pauldrons have some modern typology, especially on the sides with the extra curvature on the pauldrons. That's not to say they're completely inaccurate, a few examples of a very similar pattern (lame, pauldron, lame, lame) can also be found in Guiron le Courtois, mentioned earlier. Many upper cannons, or rerebraces, were enclosed. His are not, which is more indicative of an earlier, late 1300s pattern. They also have some modern typology and extra "sleek" curvature on the side. Couters could be Italian or English, they remained quite homogenous throughout Europe from 1400-1600. The open vambraces are also indicative of a late 1300s design as with his rerebraces. His arming doublet seems fine, design is shown throughout the 1400s as with the rest of his soft kit. The chainmail are chainmail voiders, found throughout the 1400s to replace the larger and heavier hauberks. The shield suspended on his armpit would be in the place of a suspended bouche shield, which are much larger and colorful, mostly used for tournaments but shown on foot in Guiron le Courtois. His mitten gauntlets are more modern in their composition but have a basis in historical accuracy. Mitten gauntlets can be found in Lancelot du Lac, De Casibus, Tristan und Isolde, etc. They have fewer plates than his do. If he were going in a more historical direction, I'd recommend kastenbrust. His helmet, gauntlets, and leg protection fit, but kastenbrust has historical armpit protection and a similar if not better protective cuirass. The faulds of a kastenbrust cuirass might get in the way, but versions are shown with shorter ones. They often have no tassets. Really wouldn't be too many big changes to make it almost 100% historically accurate, from what scholars could tell.

Ich habe leider momentan noch nicht die Möglichkeiten, so etwas selbst auszuüben und bin daher absoluter Leihe auf dem Gebiet, deshalb eine Frage: Welche Waffen sind echt und welche sind aus Sicherheitsgründen "Sparringsvarianten"? Es sieht alles sehr überzeugend aus, ich komm nur manchmal ins Zweifeln. Das liegt sicherlich auch an der wirklich guten Filmarbeit und der Echtheit des Sparrings an sich😅

Also grundsätzlich verwenden wir Federn, Waffen die Stumpf und mit breitere Schlagkannte versehen sind (mindestens 1mm) und eine abgerundete Spitze haben, die teilweise sogar nach hinten gebogen/gefaltet ist. Alle Schwerter, Speere und Dolche bestehen aus weicher gehärtetem Stahl und haben bis auf die Form der Spitze historische Maße und auch ein historisches Gewicht. Mit abgerundeter Spitze und Biegeverhalten ist die Gefahr in historischen Rüstungen gering, natürlich wären die Trainingswaffen aber in der Lage ungerüstete oder ungepolsterte Menschen zu ohne schutzauskleidung die Knochen zu Brechen und im Mordschlag auch zu töten.

The lack of sabatons is a little unusual, but practical for what you do. English knkights of the 14th and 15 century, had specialised sabaton's along with ground optimised armour. The sabaton's were worn more for protection from accidents like a dropped weapon of an armoured person falling on them. As, any major foot injury is a mission kill, and out of the battle you go. As you mentioned, your harness is not copied from historical examples, I will leave it there. Dr Toby Capwell has done some vids about English foot optimised armour and its differences to mounted armour.

I only forge for myself., so I don't take orders. There are talented black smith's who can build suits like mine. It will take around a year with the waiting lists for most black smith's and mayby 20.000 to 35.000 €

i must say thank you for not going skyrim iron "helmet" horns, thats just such a painful thing to witness, so its quite nice to see armor that can be considered armor instead of something with about the same quality as a pile of horse crap in terms of the armor department. these fights have been my favorite out of the medieval fights i've seen i was never fascinated with knights until seeing good well made armor and how it works instead of cheesy hollywood or game crap. happy with the armor as long as the fights keep on going without a body part getting strewn about
