Fencer Helm = Helm of Sir Giles Capel?

Hi guys,

I've just noticed something interesting and I don't know if somebody else already mentioned it. I came across this helmet from the Tudor period which looks almost identical to the fencer helm. I always knew that GGG's models are inspired by the reality but this seems to be almost a 100% copy of a real item.

Are there any other items which are copies of items from the real world?

How does it work in reality?

I mean what does a garden tool do in torture?

I assume you're talking about the lead sprinkler and I also assume it was used to sprinkle molten lead on people.
