neutral  Mahmoud Akbari: کلاهخود is the term used in Persian to refer to the kind of metal helmet that warriors used to wear as a form of head protection in the old times. You can search کلاهخود to see more pictures if in doubt.

  -> thanks!

agree  Mohammad Emami: I think it is a good way to revive some good old words like this, as both کلاه ایمنی and کلاه کاسکت are applied in very different contexts in today's Persian.
