The Vambrace: A Medieval Armor Staple for Knights and Soldiers

A vambrace is a piece of armor that protects the forearm. It was commonly worn by knights and other soldiers during the Middle Ages and Renaissance. The vambrace was typically made of metal, such as steel or iron, and was designed to provide protection against slashing and piercing attacks. It was often worn in conjunction with a gauntlet, which protected the hand, to provide complete protection for the arm.
