Highest Quality Japanese Samurai Helmets For Sale

Valiant Swords is proud to offer a sumptuous line of the traditional samurai helmet, or kabuto helmet, available on our Japanese Samurai Helmets page. A kabuto is a helmet traditionally used with Japanese armor and worn by the samurai class and their retainers in feudal Japan. A typical kabuto features a strong bowl (the hachi) which protects the crown of the head, a suspended series of articulated plates (the shikoro) to protect the neck, and various crests (the datemono.)While bowl-shaped helmets were developed to protect warriors from enemy blows, the kabuto and facial armor (mengu) were designed less for protection than for intimidation. Fashioned in a grotesque grimace, often with an orange or yellow mustache, this armor was intended to strike fear in the hearts of any enemy, warning them of the fearsome battle that would soon befall them. Seen from afar on the battlefield, it would certainly be a striking sight to behold. Although such brutal battles are now consigned to the realm of legend and history, a kabuto helmet is perfect for adding authentic detail to your next re-enactment event; it's also an ideal addition to any collection.
