This Samurai Armor is #197 - This is a recent arrival.

As I tried to explain, on my top page, this suit of armor is less than 50 years old. I don't get these very often, but when I do they sell very quickly.
This type of modern armor is displayed in rich people's houses in Japan, or rich company's offices in Tokyo. They are much better made than the ones being made now and cost less.
This suit has the bear fur shoes and leggings, making it quite interesting and a little bit rare. There is a box with a family crest. Send me an e-mail if you like it and want to buy it. O-yoroi style.

... there is a gold family crest (Mon) in the center of the chest, on the front: and the same crest is in gold on the box.

This Suit of Armor is for Momoyama (1573 to 1615) fighting priests.
The Maedate on the helmet repeats the chant of
Namu Myoho Renge Kyo, and there are Buddhist Beads slung over the Dou (chest).
The helmet is very old and has crossed feathers for a mon on its Fukugaeshi
The arms (Kote) have great chain mail and a large robust plate design as seen above

This Samurai Armor is #184 and is SOLD

I just like this armor. Why? Well, the Japanese Samurai Helmet is powerful strong solid iron with no lacquer of any kind on it. Being an old Samurai Sword Dealer,
that means I am
a lover of strong samurai sword steel --- and this is it. It just seems very martial to me, and reminds me of swords --- the color is wonderful meaning that it has taken on an excellent deep black since the steel is so good. It is made for fighting. The Tehen Kanamono at top is excellent, not showy, just a deep Shakudo black alloy of 5 rings. Nice!
Price is USD $12,500 and yes we still accept U.S. dollars. This Samurai Suit of Armor is #188 ..... Many photos of this Samurai Armor Here !!!

Additional comments for Armor #155 --- This armor has a watered steel 62 plate helmet that is of very nice quality --- and is SIGNED and DATED.
The date is Tenmon 2 meaning the year 1533. The signature is Tomonobu with a Kakihan - not a famous maker but I think he did a good job.
The Tehen Kanamono (on top of the Kabuto) is flat, and iron, and almost of a piece with the ridges of the Kabuto: a true armor maker's design, rarely seen.
I would guess that this gives it more power and protection than the other Shakudo and Copper and Gold ones usually see.
Wonderful gold mons on the Fukugaeshi turnbacks, nice Iyozane style throughout,
You can see from the photos of the inside of the helmet bowl (Hachi) that this armor has a great helmet. Samurai Armor #155, price is USD $14,500 PHOTOS HERE !!!
Gold Shishi Maedate, Gold Mempo tare, Gold Kote on the shoulders, Gold and Black Haidate

This Eboshi Style Samurai Armor is #177 and is $8,700.

This armor is not so old --- perhaps 40 years or so.

But the shoulder guards make it an O-Yoroi and the helmet I thought was very nice with huge red Shikoro
I need to get it up higher in the air to take a better picture of it, but it's quite heavy and I haven't had time yet.
Anyway, it's USD $5,600 and its inventory number is Japanese Samurai Armor #125.

A number of good Photos are HERE !!!
