重籐

Etymology
Compound of. Might be encountered in some texts as shigetō, using the unvoiced kan'on reading for the second character.

The spelling for the shige portion could be analyzed as a kind of, considering the "layers" sense of the kanji.

Attested from the late 1400s.

Noun

 * 1)   a black-lacquered archery bow wrapped in strips of rattan
