About 500 years ago, military commanders called “Samurai” wore Kabuto and armors to battlefields. Marutake’s skilled craftsmen meticulously reproduce those according to Samurai’s original design from a single iron plate.
今から約500年前。かつて「侍」と呼ばれた武将達が戦場で実際に着用していた本物の設計通りに、 熟練の当職人が鉄板1枚の切り出しから丹念に手作業で仕上げます。
Kabuto and armors are made of a number of iron plates assembled one by one by our craftsmen. One of the parts requires as many as 62 pieces of iron plates. There are no written instructions - they are all reproduced by the artistic sense of Marutake’s craftsmen.
全ての材質は鉄を使用し兜の筋等は一枚一枚の鉄板を貼り合わせ、多い物で六十二枚もの鉄板を貼 り合わせて作られています。 それらに設計図は存在せず、すべて職人たちの美的感覚によって再現されています。
