14e eeuwse ketelhoed, 1-1.2 mm Materialen reenactment This sword weighs 1049 gramsIn the early 14th century, kettle hats like this one with sloping brims emerged. Advances in metalworking made it cheaper to produce kettle hats from a single piece. The brim of the kettle hat became more sloped, allowing it to deflect projectiles from above.
