Bought this for my son who trains traditional Japanese Martial Arts. Weight is good and it has held up to quite heavy use from my son.
The sword & Scabbard were good. Well weighted handle. The strap was cheap and flimsy so expect to substitute it for something better yourself.
THIS BOKKEN WONT SPLINTER LIKE WOODEN ONES AND WITH THE SCABARD INCLUDED ITS PERFECT FOR PRACTICING DRAWING AND REPLACING THE SWORD,VERY WERLL PRICED,GOOD BALANCE AN D WEIGHT.TICKS ALL THE BOXES AN D OF COURSE THE MARTIAL ARTS SHOP IS ACE,VERY HAPPY TO RECOMEND THIS ITEM
Great quality. Perfect snug fit in the scabbard and great weight and balance in the sword! Fantastic value!
