Sanada Yukimura samurai armor. This Taisho Class samurai armor has be crafted by our seasoned katchû-shi (Japanese armor smith) in honor of Sanada Yukimura (真田 幸村, 1567 – 1615), a legendary samurai represented by his iconic Gusoku (armor set). The Sanada Clan’s famous maedate (crest) is called “Rokumonsen” which represents the six coins believed to be needed to cross the river of the underworld. This mon expressed how the Sanada Clan had no fear of death, making them even more fearsome in battle. As a Taisho of the Sanada Clan, Yukimura brought great honor to his family name as he was known not only as a fierce warrior but an excellent military tactician as well. His reputation was well earned after he emerged victorious in many battles, even when he was vastly outnumbered. Most notably he won even more fame after organizing and leading the defense during the Siege of Osaka. The legends call him “Crimson Demon of War” and “The Last Sengoku Hero”. His kabuto is adorned with the antlers of a deer to personify his prowess for attack and defense.
The antlers (wood carved with clay texture) on Sanada’s helmet personify his unique ability of both defense and attacking. The standard color for this armor set is a vermilion or crimson color, sometimes with a suna (sand) finish. However the Iron Mountain Armory is happy to honor your request to paint this handsome gusoku in any color / finish you would prefer, as well as use the odoshi (lace) color of your choice. Our katchû-shi are also happy to craft your yoroi with a different style of helmet, menpo and/or suneate to make your samurai armor custom to you. More options are available through the drop down menus. Also available in Kachi and Gashira class.
