And thank you, Scholagladiatora! All the collaboration/ shout outs you do has shown us so many great content creators to watch

I knew armour wasn't clunky, but seeing how precisely and effortlessly that leg assembly moved blew my mind.

The leg bending demo is jaw dropping.

Well that needed to be 10x longer.

It's always a great pleasure when Tobias Capwell shares his great knowledge about armours. Thanks for this video!

Can never have too much Dr. Capwell.

Fantastic, thank you for showing the incredibly smooth articulation, and as well, thank you to the videographer for capturing the finest if details ..Beautifully done!! Can we see more of the armor collection please??!!!! 💖 Thank you again!

Easton sent me.... Glad he did! I've always really enjoyed the collaborations you two have done, definitely would love to see more in the future (Todd Cutler as well).

I can listen to Tobias Capwell go on about armor for hours. But getting that out of the case and letting him interact with it was even more enlightening!

Dr. Caps, in with the deep deets! Keep it comin!

Just love listening to Toby! Thanks for doing another video.

Very beautiful! However intentional, i found the little "easteregg" of the Theuerdank on the desk delightful.

Highly underrated channel and always to see Toby on these videos.

That was simply fantastic. Thank you for this video. Let us keep fighting against the image of medieval armor being clunky, heavy and impeding your mobility. Nothing could be further away from the truth. What great works of art perfectly presented by a true expert.

Great to see these pieces up close. Would have been good to see the leg armour from behind and from the inside of the leg too.

Further evidence of the lingering symbolic value of armour can be seen in all the portraits that leaders in later generations had painted of themselves in full plate armour, long after such harnesses had stopped being seen on the battlefield. The image of the 'knight' still had power that a leader could acquire for themselves.

I want more of this! Keep up the good work!

Really interesting, thank you.

Absolutely magnificent

Excellent as always.

Excellent as always

That is my favorite leg harness ever, and you just made my day by doing a video on it. Many thanks!

What an amazing highlight and close examination of the beautiful craftsmanship of the time. Thank you!

Beautiful

How many would have been employed at such an armoury?

10.27 minutes of awesome

nice

9:25 ooooooooooooooh, mmmmmmmmm.

How thick is the armor from these time 15th, 16th and 17th periods?. They do not look that heavy so maybe around 20 or 17 gauge steel? (that is 0,8 to about 1,4mm).

Way cool

Should have just said "I love refrigerators" when he walked up at the beginning

Absolutely brilliant!

Seusenhofer's works are good, and he was an innovator of forms. It seemed he loved to make ornated armour sets, but the military men preferred simpler ones. Also at this rate poor Max I is going to be remembered as the Armour Emperor (next to it would be the PR Emperor), although I guess that's better than not being remembered at all, or as the weak-willed, ugly matchmaker (in England-influenced realms). It turns out the French are still generous in allowing him to be known as Marie de Bourgogne's romantic husband. I think the Armour-PR side of his makes it relatable to modern CEOs (and aspirants) while the shiny objects are appealing enough to young people, especially for the Americans. For decades our societies have obsessed over and idolized (even if at the same time, secretly detest) the flashy types, the easy money and the "virtual" perhaps a bit too much. This creates a pattern that, "being an egoist who fills his bags with air works." Max had other aspects though, despite himself, although that showy, brutal, exploitative military startup founder also existed.

How did Imperial armour of the early 16th cent. get to England?

I don't know about these pieces specifically but aside from the possability that they were bought and moved by a more modern collector in the middle ages and renacance there was a huge armour trade with large armour making centers exporting their work to buyers across Europe and as mentioned in the video armour was also guifted between the nobility of Europe.

Heinrich ( Henry) Vlll personaly met Maximilian l during a campaign against french king Franz ( Francis). Henry later wrote, he learned much from Maximilian in context of modern warfare. So Henry hired german mercenaries and craftsmen, and bought also some german weaponry. So this piece could be a part of weaponry, bought by Henry Vlll.

It's ok, he does not even need to use gloves, it's a problem if people touch the armour at a daily basis
