Saika Samurai Armor Yoroi

Description

The Saika-Shu where known for their skill with firearms and their strong spirit. This was a strong clan of mostly Buddhist monks, which because of their strong spirit, were often not under the rule of any particular warlord. So tenacious was this clan that they even fought amongst themselves.

They also fought as mercenaries for feudal warlords and quickly became wealthy and had no need to fight for money. With their own fleet of ships they became involved in trading and commerce with far-away lands. Seeing the advantage of firearms, the Saika-Shu had over 4,000 expert musketeers that even the musketeers of the famous Oda Nobunaga could not match them. It took Oda Nobunaga over 10 years to finally defeat the Saika-Shu clan.

This armor is an authentic reproduction made of iron, steel, leather, cotton, silk and other materials that were traditionally used during the Warring States Period of Japan. Strictly made by hand in the traditional Japanese manner by highly skilled craftsmen. This is a real, life size armor which an average adult (with a height of 5′ 3″ – 5′ 9″ ) can wear and is fully functional. The clamshell dō features a pin hinge under the left armpit which can be removed and a cord can be laced through the hinges to accommodate a larger chest.

Handcrafted by the skilled craftsmen of the Iron Mountain Armory.

Yoroi Bitsu (armor storage display box) and Stand already included.
