The ramming ships of the Korean navy known as turtle ships were very heavily armored and were used from 1592 onward in battles against the numerically superior Japanese.
Powered by sails and oars, these ships were very maneuverable and could run over smaller ships and ram larger ones. To counter the Japanese boarding tactics, the upper deck of the turtle ships was covered with long iron spikes.

The ship model shown is a scale replica of a Turtle Ship.
This model was made 100% by hand and with precision using traditional plank-on-frame construction with hull planking.
Among other things, exotic fine woods such as teak, mahogany, rosewood or mango are used, resulting in a valuable and decorative premium model as the finished product.
After completion, the hull is carefully sanded and painted where intended. The model is then coated with a protective clear varnish.
Ornaments and decorations (e.g. cannons, portholes, anchors, dials and wheels …) are made of brass, chrome or other high-quality metals.
The sails are made of fabric or silk, the masts of wood and the rigging of strong cotton threads. Some of these ropes have special knots that allow the ropes to be retensioned at any time.
Our models undergo strict quality control so that we can offer you a flawless product. Customer satisfaction is our highest priority. All models are delivered fully assembled.
