The 6-Piece (六枚落ち rokumai-ochi) handicap in shogi has both of White's major pieces, the rook (飛) and the bishop (角), removed as well as their lances (香) and knights (桂). Thus, White is left with pawns, golds, and silvers.
Black has the usual setup of twenty pieces.
The handicap is a part of the official handicap system.
