for those who care
The term Landsknecht translated literally means "servant of the country" and first began appearing in the German language in approximately 1470.

Trade questions
Amazing armour, indeed. What kind of steel do you use for this kind of armour? Do you quench it?

Breastplate
Man o Man that was a work of art. Very talented skilled craftsman.
A lot of time and muscle sweat equity went into making this and time is money.
Can you imagine wearing this in the rain or fog. You would have to spend hours polishing and oiling to stop it from rusting. You would have to be a rich man to afford a Squire to do the dirty work.

It was interesting to see how it was made. Hope you had ear plugs on or you just might go deaf if not already.
