Charge with Strategy & Honor
The Armor of Takeda’s Mastermind
This Kachi Class suit of samurai armor is crafted in tribute to Yamamoto Kansuke (山本 勘助, 1501–1561), the brilliant strategist of the Takeda Clan and one of the famed “Twenty-Four Generals of Takeda Shingen.” Known for his loyalty and fearless tactics, Kansuke’s most famous achievement was orchestrating the victorious plan during the Fourth Battle of Kawanakajima—an intense confrontation against the legendary Uesugi Kenshin.
Though the plan proved successful, Kansuke never saw his triumph. Believing he had failed his lord, he charged alone into the fray, dying a glorious warrior’s death that secured Takeda’s victory and cemented his name in the annals of samurai history. His fearless spirit and strategic genius are captured in every detail of this armor.
This set includes a hachi zunari kabuto (helmet) & Okegawa Dō (chest armor), adorned with real water buffalo horns to reflect Kansuke’s battlefield might. The armor is fully functional, fully wearable, and fully customizable to reflect your inner warrior’s spirit. Choose your preferred paint, nylon odoshi (lace), helmet style, mask, and more. This popular set is also available in Gashira & Taisho Class for elevated detail.
Whether displayed in your home, dojo, or worn into reenactment, this armor reminds us that victory comes not only through strength—but through honor, loyalty & sacrifice.
