The mod makes the Cursader Helm wearable as to that make the head visible instead of replacing the head completely. 
The helm only works the huminoid characters. It can be worn with the beast races, but parts of the faces will clip though the helm.

There are two esp files. One for the default Knights of the Nine;
and the other for Eyecandy Variants Expansion (EVE) HGEC Body Selector and Stock Equipment Replacer Knight of the Nine add on.

				DO NOT use the two esp file together.
 
Make sure that Knights-OpenCrusaderHelm.esp is loaded after Knight - Unoffical Patch.esp.

Make sure EVE_Knights-OpenCrusaderHelm.esp is loaded after Knight - Unoffical Patch and EVE_Knightsofthenine.esp.

I use parts of the coif mesh from AkitoKuno's Skyrim Ebony Armor to make the chainmail parts around the eyes.
This helps to hide the head inside the helmet as to make a more natural look.
