摘要:This paper discusses the metallurgy of some jousting armours, and other aspects of their equipment. Armours for the joust with sharp lances ( scharfrennen ) were found to be sometimes thinner than armour for the joust of peace ( gestech ) but these examples were made of better metal. Appendices discuss the textile padding, which was an integral part of the protection offered by jousting armour, and some of the lances employed in the joust.
