Handmade Honda Tadakatsu Samurai Armor Life-Size, Yoroi with Helmet

Background History:
Honda Tadakatsu (March 17, 1548 – December 3, 1610), also known as Honda Heihachirō, was a prominent samurai, general, and daimyo from the late Sengoku period to the early Edo period, serving under Tokugawa Ieyasu. He was one of the Tokugawa Four Heavenly Kings, alongside Ii Naomasa, Sakakibara Yasumasa, and Sakai Tadatsugu. Tadakatsu is famous for his extraordinary martial prowess and legendary status, often said to have never received a wound in battle. His helmet, adorned with deer antlers, became an iconic symbol on the battlefield, and his warhorse, Mikuniguro, was equally famous. Revered as a "war god," Tadakatsu's unwavering loyalty and indomitable courage made him one of Tokugawa Ieyasu's most trusted generals.
