A knight of the Lorraine in service to King Edward II or perhaps the young King Edward III. The sword I am wearing is an Oakeshott type XVI. Other datable aspects are the separate coif without a ventail worn outside of the surcoat, gamboised cuisses, elbow and knee cops, and greaves (not visible).
This is as a knight may have looked at the onset of the Hundred Years War in the 1330s. Armor would change radically with the rapid addition of plates on the limbs in the next two decades following. The hauberk diminished in size to a thigh-length, three-quarter sleeve haubergon. Also the long surcoat shortened to a jupon.
Incidentally, photo taken by my 11 year old son.
