Extra Design Options

Gashira (Officer): Expertly handmade from a mixture of quality traditional and modern materials, as well as some modern crafting process. This class of armor is crafted with a good attention to detail. Crafting Time: 20 to 35 Days. Materials Used: Bowl style kabuto, steel construction, traditional brocade, hemp, quality cotton, brass, copper fittings with genuine leather & and some synthetic materials might be used. (materials may differ depending on model) Our “Gashira Class” yoroi represents the next level up from our “Kachi Class.” Each suit is meticulously handcrafted by our experienced katchû-shi (armor smiths) at Iron Mountain Armory. These artisans pour their warrior spirit into every piece, using quality materials and traditional crafting methods, complemented by modern techniques, tools, and design advancements. Like the Taisho Class, each suit is heavily researched and crafted with great care for historical accuracy. The principal difference between the Gashira and Taisho classes is that the Gashira Class is crafted with a practical bowl-style kabuto (simulated laminate) and some machine-stamped parts. The Gashira Class also features subtle modern enhancements, such as grommets and spot welding, making the armor more robust and easier to maintain. Our Gashira Class samurai armor is made for collectors, exhibitions, re-enactors, and martial artists who desire an authentic “Gendai” samurai suit of armor without the additional expenses associated with the more traditional design and handcrafting methods of our Taisho Class. The Gashira Class features a more traditional Gendai design compared to the Kachi Class and includes features such as real animal hair, genuine leather, a removable or interchangeable nose, brass fittings, shoulder padding with kikko (armor plating), traditional butted mail, opposable thumbs, leg/waist support on haidate, extra materials, fittings, riveting, grommets, additional lacing options, and an included armor storage/display box (yoroi bitsu) with stand. The attention to detail is a significant step up from the Kachi Class. However, due to the handcrafted nature of many parts, there may be some blemishes that pass through our QC process. Although we strive to avoid and correct these blemishes, they are a natural occurrence in handcrafting. Taisho Class suits will have fewer, if any, of these blemishes due to the high standards and meticulous review processes.

SKU: T44 Category: Taisho Samurai Armor (High Quality) Tags: Gosuko, Ii Clan, Ii Naomasa, Samurai Armor

Description

Ii Naomasa Taisho Samurai Armor set has been handcrafted in honor of the legendary Ii (ē) Naomasa (井伊直政, 1561–1602) of the Tôtômi Province. Believed to have been inspired by the fabled Takeda Clan, Ii Naomasa adorned himself and his troops with samurai armor lavished in rich vermilion. The Ii clan’s samurai dominated the battlefield, rightfully earning the name “The Red Devils.” Naomasa himself was called Akaoni, or “Red Ogre.” This particular samurai armor set is adorned with Naomasa’s distinctive “lofty golden horns” (made of wood) and is without a maedate (helmet crest). The young Taisho (general) served with honor and distinction under Tokugawa Ieyasu. He would later become a founding member of the Tokugawa Shogunate and be known as, one of the “The Four Guardian Kings” or “The Guardians of the Four Horizons”.

Our most experienced Taisho katchû-shi (Japanese armor smith) faithfully craft this classical samurai armor set from the original samurai armor set Ii Naomasa once wore. Featuring a kiritsuke iyozane okegawa do and etchû zunari kabuto with golden horns, which reach to the heavens. This classical and iconic armor set will give honor to any samurai on or off the battlefield. Although the options to replicate this samurai armor set, as seen, are pre-selected, our katchû-shi are happy to craft this armor from any of the options available on this page. If you would like the horns painted a different color or a specific length, please request it in the “comments” section of the order form.

Features: Taisho Class crafting.

Full sized and fully functional.
Variation of paint, high quality cotton odoshi colors and traditional features.
Includes display box and stand.

Our skilled katchû-shi (armorers) at the Iron Mountain Armory will need at least 4 to 6 weeks, depending on options selected, and other scheduled orders, for the custom handcrafting of your samurai armor set.

To see the class differences, please view Kachi Vs. Gashira.

For more information, please review our Order Options Explained, Glossary Terms or FAQ Pages. You can also Contact Us directly. We are always happy to be of service.
