Awaken Fear – Armor Inspired by Mythical Demons

This remarkable Tsuno Oni (horned demon) armor embodies the fierce persona of Japan’s legendary mountain spirits, meticulously crafted by our elite Taisho-class katchû-shi (Japanese armorers). Drawing from both myth and historical design, this armor strikes terror into foes and admiration from allies.

Every component, from the sweeping shikoro (neck guard) to the sode (shoulder guards) and kusazuri (skirt plates), is laced in kebiki-odoshi (full lacing), showcasing the highest level of traditional craftsmanship and imposing strength.

Our Taisho artisans at Iron Mountain Armory use traditional techniques with minimal modern enhancements, ensuring each suit retains historical authenticity and structural excellence. This is not merely costume armor—it is functional, wearable armor forged with reverence and skill.

Every set is fully customizable. Choose your preferred kabuto, menpō, suneate (shin guards), paint finishes, and odoshi lace color. This armor is crafted to reflect your unique warrior spirit and presence.

I took 2 days to look at the armor from every side to form my own opinion and that is the conclusion I have come to.

I myself have many years of sewing-experience, but the armor is made in such a qualitatively outstanding way, that even I am baffled. The workmanship of the armor is the highest I have ever witnessed.
I have send (almost) every measurement of my body to the Iron Mountain Armory team so that the armor would fit me ideally and even the kote (arm sleeves) are fitting me PERFECTLY; my arm length is (way) above average 😉

BUT exactly here is my problem: sadly I have measured my chest size in a wrong way and picked one size (112 cm) above the one I should have picked (106 cm). Now my Do (breastplate) is too large so I have too much space inside of it, so effectively i can’t move in it as good as I should be supposed to.

So to the person who is reading this, when you are measuring your chest size, really make sure to read the description on how to measure your chest size and make sure, that the tape-measure is snug on your chest (+5 cm).
So you can follow my thoughts: I made the mistake to leave (just) a little bit of space from my chest to the tape, so I thought my chest circumference would be 104 cm, +5 cm I would be at 109 cm and so I picked the next larger chest-size which was 112 cm, which I now know, was too big for me.
When I measured my chest circumference again today with a snug measurement-tape, I was at 102 cm, +5 cm I would be at 107 cm, so I should have picked 106 cm chest-circumference.

But as I have already stated, it was my mistake and one will get EXACTLY what one buys.

One more thing one can do, is to send the head-circumference, because in my case of having a large head, the helm presses me on the forehead when I push the helmet forward.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I definitely would.

Gashira (Officer) Gashira (Officer): Expertly handmade from a mixture of quality traditional and modern materials, as well as some modern crafting process. This class of armor is crafted with a good attention to detail. Crafting Time: 20 to 35 Days. Materials Used: Bowl style kabuto, steel construction, traditional brocade, hemp, quality cotton, brass, copper fittings with genuine leather & some synthetic materials may be used. (materials may differ depending on model) Our “Gashira Class” yoroi represents the next level up from our “Kachi Class.” Each suit is meticulously handcrafted by our experienced katchû-shi (armor smiths) at Iron Mountain Armory. These artisans pour their warrior spirit into every piece, using quality materials and traditional crafting methods, complemented by modern techniques, tools, and design advancements. Like the Taisho Class, each suit is heavily researched and crafted with great care for historical accuracy. The principal difference between the Gashira and Taisho classes is that the Gashira Class is crafted with a practical bowl-style kabuto (simulated laminate) and some machine-stamped parts. The Gashira Class also features subtle modern enhancements, such as grommets and spot welding, making the armor more robust and easier to maintain. Our Gashira Class samurai armor is made for collectors, exhibitions, re-enactors, and martial artists who desire an authentic “Gendai” samurai suit of armor without the additional expenses associated with the more traditional design and handcrafting methods of our Taisho Class. The Gashira Class features a more traditional Gendai design compared to the Kachi Class and includes features such as real animal hair, genuine leather, a removable or interchangeable nose, brass fittings, shoulder padding with kikko (armor plating), traditional butted mail, opposable thumbs, leg/waist support on haidate, extra materials, fittings, riveting, grommets, additional lacing options, and an included armor storage/display box (yoroi bitsu) with stand. The attention to detail is a significant step up from the Kachi Class. However, due to the handcrafted nature of many parts, there may be some blemishes that pass through our QC process. Although we strive to avoid and correct these blemishes, they are a natural occurrence in handcrafting. Taisho Class suits will have fewer, if any, of these blemishes due to the high standards and meticulous review processes.
