Mid-Realm

Absolutely gem in Dallas, texas
Insane to see these pieces not behind glass ans to be able to get so close to them that you could (but I did not 🙂) touch them! My favorite piece is the gosuko armor with bullet tests.

A Tengu, in Japanese folklore, is a type of mischievous supernatural being. They were sometimes considered the reincarnated spirit of someone who was proud and arrogant in life. Renowned swordsmen, they are said to have taught the military arts to the Minamoto hero Yosh*tsune. They live in trees in mountainous areas.
