Best part of the set, very thick and heavy, perfect. The crests are not made of gold of course.
Part: Royal Corinthian Helmet, complete replica, not so battle ready
Material: Copper, leather and wood in the seat of plume
Weight: ~2 kg
Close in pic:
Plume is not sewed or tightly attached, but just put on the helmet. Crests are blackened on the sides. Surface is not as smooth as the cuirass and it attracts dusts.
Part: Kopis, non-sharp replica, can kill a chicken with repeated hitting on the head
Material: Steel
Weight: ~2 kg
Length: 63 cm

All the details are made and much better than in TW mods. The blade and the handle seem to be a single piece? (no knowledge of this part) A little stained. White part is not ivory.
This is a proper set everyone should prepare at home for the coming collapse of civilization (i.e. when we run out of bullets). Good against increasing numbers of knife wielding crazies too, with side benefits of endurance training, keeping you freezing cold in winter and well heated in summer. Maybe that's why they weren't worn on horseback.
Didn't expect them to be that heavy. Weren't ancient Greeks quite short? Use of real bronze and freeing of staining would be really nice and I'd try a different producer next time, if there is even one.
Can't give any rating to helmet or kopis since there is no comparison I know of. But quite satisfied and bankrupt for any hope of replacement.
