Description

Hachi-gané (armored headband), a high-quality and functional reproduction of original designs from the Sengoku Era (Warring States). This armored headband features three karute-gane (square steel armor plates) linked with kusari (chain-links) and a double-layered hachimaki (headband) with a thin layer of padding for maximum protection and comfort. Customize your armor and material color, and add the clan mon of your choice or your own symbol/logo to the center plate. This mon will be engraved from brass and fixed to your samurai armored headband for a small extra fee. Reply to your order confirmation with your custom mon, if selected.

History:
The hachigane (hachimaki) was a small piece of flexible or portable armor designed to protect the forehead. Used by both samurai and possibly shinobi (ninja), its main purpose was to shield the warrior from cuts to the forehead. Samurai would often wear this armor in combat, dueling, traveling, or during semi-formal occasions. Over time, the hachigane became a symbol of status as well as a piece of light armor protection, especially during duels.

I have purchased 2 other hachigane in the past year for around the same price and the quality on this one is far better quality. Simply put if you are looking for a hachigane, this is the one to buy. Super fast shipping too!

My custom hachigane was even more beautiful than I imagined it would be. I just wear it around the house because I am mostly a child inside, and its my house so I can do what I want. The quality is absolutely top notch. This is not a cheap, thin piece of fabric but rather a solidly layered and sewn bit of wearable art. I love it so much. Excellent job.
