Product Description

Classic Tokugawa Clan Kabuto

The Tokugawa clan rose to power at the end of the Sengoku period. They served as the Shogun of Japan from 1603 until 1867 and were therefore the longest and most stable of Japan's three bakufu. Their dominance was so strong that some history books use the term "Tokugawa era" instead of "Edo period".

This hineno-jikoro style kabuto has been painted with the mon (crest) of the Tokugawa clan in their honor. Tokugawa's clan mon, the "triple hollyhock" has been a readily recognized icon in Japan, symbolizing in equal parts the Tokugawa clan and the last shogunate. The solid steel plating and cunstruction is much like the kabuto that samurai often wore in his time.

This fine authentic reproduction of traditional Japanese hineno-jikoro style kabuto is hand made by the Fenglinhanjia Armory. Each kabuto is supplied with the matching menpo and a portable kabuto stand, to be proudly displayied. Assembly instructions are also included. The kabuto is wearable and fully functional.

Features: Made from 16 gauge steel, battle ready, leather insert with cotton lining and custom wooden stand. Metal construction with colorful cord embellishment on the neck protector and mask. Each piece is hand made and might be different from the picture posted.
