While visiting the SF Asian Art Museum this weekend, I stopped at the Japanese collection to inspect the five-plate Yukinoshita samurai armor. I've been watching the new Shogun series on Hulu and it's fantastic that we can see the real armor at the AAM.

It's a combination of craftsmanship and combat.
