Late 14th C Articulated Knee

This style of articulated knee was one of the first truly successful articulating knee styles ever designed. 14th C armor tended to have simpler, less sweeping lines than later plate armor. This version has 4 articulating lames and a demi-greave. A similar type articulated knee was made without any upper lames. In that case, the cuisse was embossed to act as the upper lame.

CLANG's 14th C articulated knee is shown here with optional "V" fluting, which was popular at this time.
