Unite strength, comfort, and style with The Black Knight Gorget, a piece of medieval armor built to embody both knightly elegance and battlefield readiness. Hand-forged from 9mm 18-gauge mild steel flat rings, each link is round riveted and reinforced with alternating flat solid rings for durability and authenticity.
The gorget’s deep blackened finish projects the aura of a seasoned warrior, while the polished brass edging adds a refined touch of nobility. Inside, a suede padded lining ensures comfort by reducing irritation and absorbing impact, making it suitable for extended wear during reenactments or LARP battles.
Imagine stepping into the tournament grounds, your blackened chainmail gorget resting firmly against your shoulders. The golden brass edging catches the sunlight, marking you not just as a warrior, but as one of rank and prestige. Beneath the steel, the suede lining cushions you in comfort as the crowd roars and your foes take notice. Every ring in the 9 mm mail glints with the promise of protection, while the deep black finish gives you the presence of a knight cloaked in both mystery and power.
Designed to shield the neck and shoulders, the most vulnerable points in close combat, this gorget mirrors the protective gear of medieval knights who needed both defense and distinction. Whether worn in full kit for SCA combat, donned at LARP and medieval fairs, or displayed as a collector’s centerpiece, it offers the perfect balance of functionality and craftsmanship.
Care Instructions
-
Lightly oil the steel after each use to prevent rust.
-
Keep suede lining dry; if damp, allow it to air dry naturally.
-
Store in a dry, ventilated space to preserve finish and comfort.
-
Brass edging may naturally develop a patina — polish if a bright look is desired.
Note
Each gorget is individually handmade and assembled, so minor differences in color, texture, or stitching may occur.
