3D-printed collector's statuette, hand-finished, aged bronze look

This statuette embodies my samurai soul. From fearless warrior, I became a symbol. Accompanied by my katana and my metal and boiled leather armor, I have traveled paths, skirted mountains, explored caves and served many warlords. I've fought in many battles. All have been victorious. The breath of life left me when I had already retired from the military and martial tumult, in a temple surrounded by several tree-lined gardens. Every year, I waited for the cherry blossoms to bloom, a perfect illustration of our impermanence. Now I'm perpetuating the spirit of Bushidō, the soul of Japan, according to Inazō Nitobe¹.

¹ "Bushidō, the Soul of Japan" (武士道, Bushidō) is a work by Inazō Nitobe (1862-1933) published in 1900.

Did female samurai ever exist? What about black samurai? Was the katana really the samurai's main weapon? Are ninjas just legends? Could they really fly and disappear in a cloud of smoke?
Noble warriors, eminent members of the military caste, prominent figures in the context of ancient feudal Japan. But who really were the samurai? What earned them their undying reputation? Do their legendary exploits have any historical relevance? And what was their code of honor, which still lives on in modern Japanese society as a reminder of those glorious times gone by?
Follow Daichi in this new exploration of one of the most fascinating chapters in Japanese history and culture. Learn more about the origin and evolution of the legendary, indomitable samurai warriors, their relationship with the powerful daimyo, the warlords of feudal Japan, and how their noble lineage was ultimately shattered by political and cultural changes.
Among a thousand other topics covered in the book:
✅ Samurai weapons: not just swords, but bows, knives, armor and... fans
✅ The warrior women, or onna bugeisha, wives or daughters of samurai, ready to go into battle alongside their husbands
✅ Ninjas, between legend and reality: origins, weapons, techniques and historical context
✅ Bushido, the samurai's code of honor, and all it prescribes
✅ The figure of the rōnin, the masterless samurai, and what his duties were
✅ Ritual suicide, or seppuku. Or harakiri. Or both.
✅ The most famous warriors of the time, royal and legendary, male and female
... and much, much more!
We're used to seeing samurai almost everywhere, from Akira Kurosawa's classic black-and-white films to Samurai Gourmet's modern gastronomic reinterpretations. But we've probably never really researched the history and facts of these fascinating warrior figures. Now we have the chance to do just that, as we follow Daichi on his umpteenth exciting foray into the culture of his beloved country.
Discover how Yusufe, a black slave from Mozambique, was able to hold the katana, how the samurai Minamoto no Tametomo was able to sink a ship with a single arrow, and how the empress Jingū conquered Korea, even if they never knew it in Korea.

Decorative Katana with two Kozukas (小柄 knife), marine and pirate designs, delivered in a black and red cloth-covered box | I was born seven centuries ago, in a special forge. The blacksmith who gave birth to me worked in a cave whose only access required climbing a cliff. By the sea, the basaltic cliffs of Tōjinbō (東尋坊 Sakai, Fukui prefecture) are still a geological singularity today.
