Description
Crimson Demon of War
Honor the Legacy of the Last Sengoku Hero
This Kachi Class samurai armor is a tribute to Sanada Yukimura (真田 幸村, 1567–1615), one of the most revered and iconic warriors of the Sengoku Era. Known as the “Crimson Demon of War” and “The Last Sengoku Hero,” Yukimura became a legend for his unmatched bravery, sharp military strategy, and unwavering loyalty. He led the defense during the famed Siege of Osaka, where his valor even earned the respect of his enemies. As a Taisho of the Sanada Clan, his leadership and courage immortalized his name in samurai history.
The most notable symbol of the Sanada Clan is the Rokumonsen (Six Coins) maedate (helmet crest), representing the toll required to cross into the afterlife. This crest signified their resolve and fearlessness in the face of death. Sanada’s helmet also featured grand antlers, representing both defense and aggressive counterattack—a visual reminder of the tactical mastery and strength that defined his legacy.
Iron Mountain Armory’s apprentice Katchû-shi will craft your yoroi in the same spirit, following traditional patterns while using modern techniques and synthetic materials to keep this suit affordable. The set features a hachi zunari kabuto (helmet), Okegawa Dō (barrel-style chest armor), sode (shoulder guards), and kusazuri (skirt plating), offering both style and functionality.
The standard color scheme includes crimson vermilion with an optional suna (sand) finish, paired with black and red nylon odoshi (lace). The antlers on the kabuto are crafted from lightweight synthetic material in this version. As with all our armors, you may fully customize the helmet style, menpō (mask), suneate (shin guards), color finish, lace style, and more. This suit is also available in Gashira & Taisho Class for enhanced craftsmanship and authenticity.
