spear vs mail over soft leatherby tarrachalfson3,068 views
@BlankPageNumberXIII Well, from what I've read, mail was not as effective with the blunt trauma the hits came with. I guess a stab would create a lot of blunt trauma than a slash. I'd say yours a logical guess on it. The point was to stop any open wounds because that's what would certainly kill you, at the time infected wounds were a death sentence, even if it wasn't a lethal cut.

@luciferiexcelsil But is it still more effective against slashing then stabbing?

@BlankPageNumberXIII it was designed for both... However it was riveted. No one ever used butted mail, as it was a waste of very expensive steel and pretty much useless.

Not only the chainmail is an imitation, but also the carpet is not a gambeson.

this is not real mail . Get riveted mail.

Wasn't chainmail designed to resist slashing not piercing? I don't know. That is what i have heard.

Yep, this is bullshit, mate. Get riveted.

@seanschwei perhaps because people can't afford a gambeson and welding equipment to link the chains. But, that's just me.

@seanschwei Yeah, last time I was looking up stuff about chainmail, there were no examples of butted mail anywhere. It's pretty obvious that an arrow would pierce butted mail because there is nothing holding the mail rings together! The arrow hits the ring and pushes it apart because there is no weld or rivet to hold it together. Next time try it with some solid, welded, or riveted rings.
