Honestly, I did not expect much from this bokken despite the positive reviews. I bought this bokken as a spur of the moment kind of thing; I needed one as soon as possible when I first started Iaido, and not knowing where to buy, I turned to Amazon.
The bokken is well balanced and its handle has a better shape than my $30.00 bokken. I was so ecstatic when I started doing some iaido forms with this bokken. It has the perfect handle, fair weight and I didn’t do handle maintenance with this bokken as I do with my other one. This is also a fairly sturdy bokken, able to withstand the force when I accidentally hit the kitchen counter while doing suburi (empty swinging) with this.
I recommend this bokken for the first time iaidoka. This bokken will serve you for many months and probably years if taken care of. This is a great bokken for its price.
Please do note that this is not a shinai, so don’t try hitting your friends or trees with this thing. It is very likely to break.

Is a very solid bokken a little bit heavy, but it looks durable, comes with a plastic handguard remobable, well finished. Is made of hard wood, natural wooden color. It came in a huge Amazon package that i think was useless because the boken has a little chink on the tip and it semmed that was caused in the box by the look of the package. I highly recomend this boken!

This is a great and simple bokken made of red oak and as solid as a rock with good weight and a removable, plastic guard. It is approximately 39 or 40 inches long. A great deal for only nine dollars.

Definitely on the heavier side of bokken I’ve owned. It’s definitely got heft. Mine came with a wrapped handle, which I promptly removed and then sanded down the handle.
This is a high quality bokken. I recommend it.

This item arrived at my home on the day of my third Forza Class…very nice. Heavier than the class bokken so a much greater workout. My instructor and the other members of my class who have their own Swords were impressed with the balance and distinctive rich deep brown color. For a generic Practice Daito Sword, (not that I have had much experience), this weapon is most satisfactory. I look forward to getting lots of use from this lovely piece of wood.
