Japanese Samurai Armor

3D Model

Ancient Japanese armor of Oda nobunaga.

Japanese armor first appeared in the Edo period.

At that time, people called the armor before the Edo period “昔具足”, and called the armor at that time “当世具足”. But now the word Ju Zu has become a synonym for all 具足, and its original meaning has been almost forgotten, so this paper does not distinguish between them.

One important point was that all Japanese cadres were referred to as “equator”, so expressions like “certain equator” were often seen. However, this did not mean that such cadres belonged to the equator or positions, but just named the bodies. A complete set of scutches can also be divided into three parts, namely, mantle, armored (lm, sleeve, scutches) and scutches (cage hands, arch and dun).
