I've used it:

Though with this character it is used more as supplimental armor since the
torso is what I consider to be ring-mail. I've never thought of a 'style
name' for the armor, but my use was inspired by one of the bad guys in part
of a Conan movie I flipped past on TV last year - so barbarian armor sounds
good to me. :)
I've thought of it as a layered type armor with the spikes mostly for the
intimidation factor. What it's made of I haven't really considered.. either
light plate or heavy boiled leather, probably.
