What are the special features of the FRM weave in this chainmail collar, and for what type of medieval reenactment or combat demonstration is this design recommended?

The FRM weave consists of flat chain links, in which a ring and a punched ring are alternately linked in a 4-in-1 weave pattern. This design is recommended for late medieval reenactment of the 14th and 15th centuries, as well as for staged combat, because it combines an authentic design with robustness and flexibility.
