Zunari Mokusei Horadzundo Kabuto Gashira Class

Zunari Mokusei Horadzundo Kabuto (wooden horned warrior helmet) is crafted by the Gashira Class katchû-shi  (Japanese armor smith) at the Iron Mountain Armory.  This reproduction of a traditional Japanese zunari (zu-nari) kabuto is adorned with the intimidating Mokusei Horadzundo (wooden replica horns) of a water buffalo. The wooden horns are lightweight and symmetrical, making them ideal for those Modern Warriors wanting a well-balanced kabuto with perfectly designed and angled horns, which can be removed.  It was believed to channel the energy and strength of this beast.  Although this style of kabuto is not practical for battle, it would have been worn for display, ceremonies, parades to and from the capital city.  The horns can be removed to make it easier / safer for martial arts training. However, there will still be 2 short metal posts remaining, which are used to support / hold the wooden horns when mounted.

It has been crafted to simulate the traditional 3 plate design, which forms the hachi (bowl) section of the kabuto. The shikoro (neck guard) plates are hand cut, shaped, polished, painted and then hand laced in odoshi sugake (simple hang) with care. Choose the color of odoshi that suits you.  The ukebari (helmet lining) is then carefully fitted to the inside of the hachi (bowl of helmet) to finish the kabuto. Your choice of mengu (facial armor) can be selected to be crafted with this kabuto.  A perfect kabuto for an low to mid-ranking samurai or collector.
