Armor

The armor that the Samurai used dates back to the 4th century and has been evolving or modern ever since. Japanese makers use leather and lacquer was used to waterproof the armor parts. Later, they used leather and or iron scales to construct samurai armor, with leather than eventually silk lace connected the scales.

Weapons

The Samurai used a variety of weapons. They used a Katana, Wakizashi, Tanto, Kama, and Fans. First, fans. People would think they would use paper fans in battle but they don't use paper, in battle it would be called a Tessen. A Tessen is a metal manufacture fan that was used in battle to throw, fending off projectiles, and even clubbing people. Kamas was used in battle to tandem people (Kama training is still used in Martial Arts today.) Tanto is less likely to be a dagger it is used in battle to do special attacks, Wakizashi are the secondary sword, right next to Katana, they would used Wakizashi greater effect in close quarters, often used to deliver the killer blow to the enemy. Lastly the Katana. The Katana is the primary sword to the Samurai that was used in battle to of course-kill.
