Forging forgotten Ancient Greek armour

Dimitrios Katsikis, a self-taught master of the forgotten art of melding metal to forge ancient Greek armour, is a timekeeper for the relics of yore.

With his handcrafted tools and keen understanding of history, he enjoys skillfully forging unassuming materials into breathtakingly intricate sets of defensive battle gear, embodying the warrior spirit of the legendary Greek fighters.

As an ardent researcher and historian, Katsikis has the uncanny ability to resurrect the vestiges of history from a mere handful of surviving fragments.

His painstakingly accurate reconstructions of these ancient artifacts have not only preserved history but have also found esteemed spaces in museums across Greece.
