Where I Got my Teutonic Armor

[@metatronyt]

Very fun video thanks!

[@teutonicpenguin9593]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed! I am a big fan of your content as well!

[@macross4880]

It's Metatron! Didn't expect to see you here.

[@jevaikramullah8798]

Hi metatron

[@PhanthomKnight9]

You know you are popular when metatron acknowledges your existence

[@HangrySaturn]

It's the Metatron himself!

[@simonsvihura4356]

Recently purchased a maille Hauberk from all best stuff, thanks to your recommendation - looking forward to receiving it!

[@Jamima-js1xf]

Love the KCD music. Great video!

[@brundantheknighttemplar]

Great video. You said wool for the surcoat would have been more accurate historically, however, I talked to someone on Facebook a while back when I was making my Templar surcoat and he said that both linen and wool would have been common historically. It depended on the climate I think in which the person who would be wearing it lived or was at any point in time.

[@teutonicpenguin9593]

Yeah I've heard debate on it. I personally like linen more and it can get pretty hot even up in the Midwest. So I go linen.

[@A_Moustached_Sock]

With Templar linen was a fairly popular choice given the climate. They even reference the choice of switching to linen being allowed for knights of the order in their code to live by

[@level1skeleton317]

Total cost for all of this? Amazing vids

[@teutonicpenguin9593]

Rough cost estimate would probably be around $1400 if you bought everything. Making certain parts can lower the cost. I made some and traded for things as well. Out of pocket this kit has cost me... Right around $700 which isn't bad.

[@level1skeleton317]

@@teutonicpenguin9593 no that's not bad at all. Thanks for the response.

[@GobliniusGoblin]

Y'know, I figured I'd just let you know that a lot of these links are no longer available. I would really like an updated list for this just as much, if not more, as the viking video's list of items.

[@williamkaczmarek3996]

Thank you for putting this together. I'm researching medieval/ Templar things and I'll assume that they would have dressed the same or similarly given the era.

[@soggycardboard78]

When I finish college and get a full time job with my degree, I'm totally blasting my first paychecks on this stuff. I love the 13th century knight look!

[@koltonwagler1223]

How’d it work out

A plague upon the one who disliked this noble video.

[@GameboyMega]

Was just wondering where I could get some chausses!

[@user-ts1rt3xi1s]

nice, that´s what i needed thanks!!!!!!!!

[@mr.shutter6373]

The helmet looks like it was made by "forge of svan". They are a Czech armor forge. They defenatly sell a helmet of that looks the same and is called that name. They also do custom fitting.

[@aaronmiller6118]

thanks man you can't take back the holy land without sick armor

[@moore2077]

Were the arm plates standard for all knights, or is this a specific impression? I have not seen many others that wear those plates in primary or secondary sources.

[@jackhoneydew7975]

Those are called ailettes, and they were used for a short time in the late 13th and very early 14th century. There’s debate over whether they were protective or purely for heraldry purposes, and what they were made from.

[@Sturmv0gel]

Greetings, I just stumbled across your awesome channel and I wondered what are these quadratic things on your shoulder with the teutonic emblem called ?

[@teutonicpenguin9593]

Ailettes!

[@carioceco2315]

Very helpful video and very beautiful armor

[@bill0127]

Thank you for the video!

[@mixx796]

Would you be willing to make an arming girdle for me? Or send me the pattern? It is 100% what I've been looking for and cannot find anywhere. I like yours much better than the one in the link. Cheers

[@knyghtmordhaus9170]

Bro got the mnb warband idle pose perfected

[@unlucky_5134]

Is that only Available in US? Or outside US can also purchase it aswell?

[@AdeptusDesu]

What was the approximate total cost of everything?

[@Blorkion64]

I appreciate the kingdom come deliverance music in the background

[@gmgm9740]

I wonder how heavy the whole kit is?

[@kylecarpenter6399]

do you fight in this armor? and if so where could someone get into that sort of activity, because I'm interested!

[@teutonicpenguin9593]

Of course! Try looking up your local ACS group or HEMA club in your area.

[@kylecarpenter6399]

TeutonicPenguin what does ACS and HEMA stand for all that kept popping up was American chemical society 😂

TeutonicPenguin awesome thank you so much!

[@matt59fire]

@@teutonicpenguin9593 Wait your crusading armor actually passes their regulations? I just got my full set. But i wasnt sure i would be let it because of the lesser plate armour. My mail is 9mm mild steel riveted but my coif is 10mm mild steel riveted. My current helm is 16 but i might trade it and get a 14 gauge.

[@micahbush5397]

But how heavy is the whole kit?

[@incoherentspaghetti]

Small question: Are the strips holding up the maille on the legs leather or are they something similar to shoelace?

[@LemmingOHW]

Leather. Even the shoelaces where Leatherstraps at this time.

It's probably the cosplayer in me, but as beautiful as the surcoat is. It just looks too clean to me. I wanna weather it to be all worn in and dirty lol. Even just something subtle would look so damn good imo. Knock down that pristine white a bit.

Yeeeee!!

​@@teutonicpenguin9593 some links are unavailable

[@jorgejohnson875]

A bunch of the Kult of Athena stuff is not available, but if you were looking for a good 13th century gambeson I found a good one on medieval-market .com called Morgan Bible Gambeson, although the historical linen padding option is very expensive. I plan to get it stuffed with felt instead. Also that same site has arming caps too and linen undergarments. Although I would personally rather make them so that they fit me perfectly. Don't know where I will get mail chausses yet though.
