I saw some preview of this new film aout the story of teenager Lecter.
The scene started by the view of old Samurai Armor decorated at someones premise.
He picked up the face protector called "Menpou".
This action means something young Lecter starts.
A Sumurai Armor is a good decoration item.
I used have a few sets decorated in my house. Two red ones and one iron surfaced one.
But my wife complained our kids were scared so I kept them in original boxs since then
even if our kids grown up and left our house.
A Samurai Armor's helmet and face protector are separated parts. Many of them lacquered but some are iron itself which blackened but never rust.
Armors' style changed before and after the guns adapted for the battles in mid 16th century.
But it does not mean that an armor could protect a bullet.
I shot actually at N.J. with assistance of Cyros Smith and Bucky Malson,U.S.Muzzle Loarding
Association.
Most of the Sumurai Armors you see at Japanese or Japanese like restaurants are reproductions. Even a reproduction costs $1000- .
Real ones depend the class and conditions, but be not got by $1000-.
