Origins
Also called the Kandachi & Handachine Horse, the Kandachime is a Japanese draft breed that comes from the region of Aomori. They come from a cross between local horses and the blood of Anglo-Arabians, Arabians, Hackney and draft blood like the Belgian & Breton.
There is little information in English on this breed, but from what I can tell pureblood animals no longer exist. Larger animals from Europe & North America were imported to increase size of the animals for the Japanese cavalry.
