Intriguing Folk Tales
The Kurita (クリタ) takes design cues from a popular Japanese fable and highlights the giant octopus, one of the sea monsters sent to recover the sacred jewel stolen from the Palace of the Dragon King by a pearl diver, Princess Tamatori. Other design elements include the katana sword, pearl, waves and flowers.
The Tsuru 鶴 (つる) design features the red-crowned crane, one of the rarest in the world. It is widely regarded as a symbol of luck, longevity and fidelity. In Japan, this crane is known as the tanchōzuru and is said to live up to 1,000 years.
Cranes are said to grant favours in return for acts of sacrifice, as in Tsuru no Ongaeshi (crane’s return of a favour).
POP Culture
Those who grew up with Japanese popular art will find the anime and manga-inspired Japop (ジャポップ) design appealing.
The fun combination of traditional elements such as fish and animals with dinosaurs and the popular manga character Astro Boy is certain to make this a conversation piece.
Meanwhile, those who prefer a more mysterious theme would like the Tengu 天狗 (てんぐ) design.
The main character is the Tengu, a mischievous supernatural being from Japanese folklore that is supposed to have awesome wind controlling power. With his red face, long nose, robes and wings, the tengu is not to be messed with as he can cause chaos.
Historical chronicles
The Oda 織田 (おだ) design pays tribute to Nobunaga Oda, a fearless Japanese warlord from the Sengoku period. The head of the powerful Oda clan, he waged war against other feudal lords and manage to unify Japan in the 1560s.
The Battle of Okehazama is regarded as one of the most significant turning points in Japanese history with Oda defeating an army 10 times the size of his own. Key design elements include a katana-wielding Oda wearing a fearsome mask, his silhouette on a horse against a rising sun and the spider lily.
Lastly, the Karasu (カラス) design features weapons associated with ninjas such as the shuriken, kunai and kusarigama. Legendary ninja Hattori Hanzo who served the Tokugawa clan with distinction, was credited with saving the life of Tokugawa Ieyasu, a shogun who went on to rule a united Japan.
Hanzo commanded a 200-men strong unit of ninja warriors and was claimed to have various supernatural abilities that made him invincible.
