Japanese Helmets

The Japanese helmet is also called a Kabuto, which was used with traditional Japanese armour as worn by the Samurai. The Kabuto has a strong bowl which protects the crown of the head and a suspened series of articulated plates to protect the neck. Often the Kabuto or Japanese helmet has a crest of the clan, adorned with "Maedate" (Front Crests,) "Wakidate" (Side Crests) or "Ushirodate" (Rear Crests). These can be family or clan emblems, or flat or sculptural objects representing animals, mythical entities, prayers or other symbols.

Our Japanese jewelry includes tsuba pendant necklaces that are hand crafted in sterling silver. These tsuba pendants are the same tsubas that are on the actual Japanese katanas. Other Japanese jewelry pieces included in this category are rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings and pendants. Medieval Collectibles brings only the finest Japanese jewelry from around the world.

Japanese Katanas

The Japanese katana is one of the traditional bladed weapons of Japan. The Japanese katana has a single edged curved blade that was traditionally used by the samurai. The forging process these Japanese katanas typically took days and even weeks to construct and was considered a scared art. Japanese katanas are well known for their strength and sharpness. Medieval Collectibles has fully functional Japanese katanas from around the world from top manufacturers. These Japanese katanas are great for collector pieces and are very sharp for self defense in the time of need.

Japanese Tantos

The functional Japanese tanto is a Japanese dagger, strictly one with a guard and has all of the fittings used on swords.  The Japanese tanto blade rarely exceeds 12 inches in length and usually accompanying a katana. The Japanese tanto was designed primarily as a stabbing instrument, but the edge can be used to slash as well. Japanese tantos were mostly carried by samurai, but commoners did not generally carry them. Medieval Collectibles carries many fully functional Japanese tantos that are authentic in detailing and construction.

Japanese Tsubas

The tsuba is the guard of a Japanese sword and was the earliest fitting used with the sword and is the only one that is essential. The tsuba is a plate of metal through which the tang of the sword passes. Most Japanese tsubas are elliptical, but there are cases were they are rectanglar with slightly curved sides and rounded corners. For the Japanese tsuba collector or the enthusiast wishing to create a custom sword or the sword owner wishing to customize an existing sword, Medieval Collectibles carries a full line of Japanese katana tsubas replicating renowned pieces from museum collections.

Japanese Wakizashis

The Japanese Wakizashi is the shorter of the two swords carried by the Japanese Samurai warrior. The blade of the Japanese Wakizashi is about eighteen inches, which is like the long sword but the fittings are often more elaborate. Medieval Collectibles has listed all the fully functional Japanese wakizashis that we carry from top manufacturers around the world. These Japanese katanas are highly detailed and constructed of the finest steel giving them strength and durability.
