The Kikuchi clan, a powerful family in Kyushu, once made a name for itself.
How about trying on armor and enjoying the feeling of being a samurai as if you were a highly ambitious Kikuchi Clan warlord?

The origin of the crest of the hawk’s wings (two feathers) on the armor is that the hawk is said to have exceptional ability among many birds, and the appearance of this bird has been valued as something auspicious since ancient times.

When he went into battle, a spiritual hawk flew over and dropped two feathers on his helmet. It is said that he was so pleased with this good omen that it became the family crest.

”The hawk is a spiritual bird, and its feathers flying overhead is an auspicious sign. What should we do with this good omen? Let’s set it as our family crest and pass it on to our children and grandchildren.”
