Description

Kawan Kote (vambrace / forearm guard) are a form of shino-gote used to protect the forearm.  These are a less traditional form of kote, crafted more for Gendai budō  (現代武道 ) who needed lightweight forearm protection. Kawan kote can be worn comfortably and discreetly under clothing to give some protection against edged or blunt weapon attacks.  The shino (splint) plating typically protects the forearm, which is roughly 2 cm above the wrist and 6 cm below the elbow.  Please reference the measuring instructions in the product window above or by clicking the ? next to the sizing option.  We will do our best to craft your kawan kote to best fit your sizing.

To learn more about the unique history and development of Sangu armor like the Kawan Kote, you can read more in our blog article “About Sangu and Sode Armor Parts.”

Features: Kawan Kot

  • Custom sizing, material options and personalized paint color available.  
  • Comes as a Set of 2 Kawan Kote.
  • Sizing is for material length and may not effect armor plating length.
Our skilled katchû-shi (armorers) at the Iron Mountain Armory will need at least 1 to 2 weeks, depending on options selected, and other scheduled orders, for the custom handcrafting of this item.
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.

    The Kotes they crafted for me were exactly as I wanted and even have survived multiple tests I put them through and I am confident in their ability to protect me from harm due to the excellent work that samurai armor put into them I believe even honda tadakatsu himself would be envious of these kotes.
