One of the reviews on the MRL page says it has a 24 inch inner circumference. That's way too small for my big head.

Yeah, I know. I read them all...and every other review I could find. Sounds like barely enough to get it on my 23-1/2'' melon, much less a mail coif...which is a MUST HAVE. I'll pass. Besides, Lord of Battles is coming out with some new stuff lately. I'm eye-balling a Great Helm really seriously. ....McM

Brother, it is supposed to be a Viking helm...I don"t think that there were allot of mail coifs at the time. So quit making excuses and just buy one!!

I'm betting we'll get a spearhead on Sunday.

I don't know about that Sunday spearhead, Roger. Maybe a sword, or a ... seax ...maybe a..... Runic Long Seax ! A brother can wish, right?.....McM

Actually, the Stiklestad normally sells for $245... When I first looked , it WAS shown as normally costing $345, but apparently MRL caught the error ans corrected it.

Well...looks like 'Pirate Week' might be upon us. What do I smell ?...*sniff-sniff*.....Yup, a tri-corn hat, a cutlass, and maybe a pistol replica. ......McM
