AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful Jingasa helmet replica for High rank Hashigara. These wonderful helmets endowed with the Mon (emblem) of the for high-ranking soldier.
During the Ōnin War, the ashigaru gained a reputation as rebel troops when they sacked and burned Miyako (modern Kyoto). During the Sengoku period that followed, the battle aspect changed from man-to-man samurai fights to ashigaru fighting groups. Therefore, these become the main force in battles and some of them attain higher rank. Those who receive ashigaru command are called ashigarugashira (足軽頭). The most famous of these is Toyotomi Hideyoshi, one of the three unifiers of Japan, who also elevates many of his warrior disciples to samurai status. Yamauchi Kazutoyo was one of these samurai and later daimyo, from the ranks of the ashigaru.
No extra charges for Europe. An Authentic japanese item , difficult to find in Europe, without the consequent costs of importing from Japan or from Japanese sellers, which can increase the price of the sword by up to 30% and a months waiting for shipment and custom paperwork. A truly real nihonto to delight both new and experienced collectors.
It must be taken into account that there may be typical damages such as scratches, nicks, etc.
