Wooden Bokken with Braided Handle 39.5″

A bokken (木剣, bok(u), “wood”, and ken, “sword”) is a Japanese wooden sword used for training.  Bokken were designed to lessen the damage caused by fighting with real swords and were used for the training of samurai warriors in feudal Japan.  If you know anything about swords, you know that metal ones can be unforgiving with mistakes, especially if they’re sharpened so wood bokkens are perfect for safe practice of sword techniques and kata.

This bokken is composed of high grade red beech hardwood.   The sword thickness and style resembles that of a real steel katana.  The wood is sanded for a smooth quality finish.  Designed for demonstrations, weapons training and light sparring, this Japanese Wooden Bokken features a traditional cord-wrapped handle to provide superior grip and comfort.   Comes complete with tsuba and rubber ring.
