Neck Plate Dark Warrior – Epic Dark

You look upon your leading officer as he makes his way down the line of your fellow soldiers. Your fate and the fate of your entire unit is dependent on this veteran’s word, and you find yourself relieved not to shoulder such a heavy burden.Also referred to as a gorget, which means throatEarly versions were typically worn under the breastplate and backplate to support the weight of the heavier plate armourLater versions were larger and designed to be worn over clothing¶Made from 1mm/19 gauge thick mild steelRolled edges with no sharp edgesStraps and fittings made from top-grain leatherHand made, welded pieces for maximum durabilityEpic Armoury Dark oxidization resistant coating¶Epic Armoury Dark products are specially treated to resist rust, but should still be treated with oil and kept in dry storage. All our metal armours contain leather parts that need regular maintenance using leather-care products to keep the leather from drying out.¶Cleaning¶If your armour does get wet, it is important that you dry it thoroughly as soon as possible.¶After handling, wearing, or after six months of storage or display, all metal should be wiped with a clean cloth. Lightly oil the clean surface with a quality machine or mineral oil. Alternatively, you can apply a coating of wax to the entire surface of exposed metal. Allow the wax to dry for a couple of hours and then buff it lightly with a soft cloth.¶Rust-Prevention and Removal¶Store your armour is a dry place and check it every couple of months for signs of rust. If any is found, remove it by gently rubbing the affected spot with a mildly abrasive pad dipped in paste wax, oil, or water-displacing liquid.¶Leather Straps and Fittings¶Clean by removing dirt with a hard brush, then gently rub on leather soap with a clean, damp cloth until the leather appears clean. Remove soap with a separate damp cloth to wipe away any soap residue and then use a dry cloth to wipe away any remaining water from the leather.¶You should always condition leather after cleaning, since the soap will have removed some of its natural oils. Treat the leather with mink oil, olive oil, or beeswax polish with a clean cloth, gently rubbing a small amount of oil or polish in circles into the leather. Allow the leather to soak in the oil before wiping the leather with a final clean cloth to remove any excess residue.¶
