Great Value bokken saya |

My two bokken saya arrived today, for 2 red oak bokken purchased a couple of years ago, that had tsuba but no saya.
The e-bogu saya fits like a glove, the sageo is long although a cheap synthetic fibre and will be replaced with cotton sageo, but I couldn't be happier.
Best value bokken saya on the internet!

I just got this saya today. Shipping was very quick. I've used my sensei's plastic saya for practice for a while. This one is just like it. Im pretty satisfied with it. It's pretty sturdy so it shouldn't bend unless you fell on it or tried to bend it. Stepping on it might crease it, so make sure you watch out for it. The only thing that I felt was wrong was it was, did not come with a sageo. If it does, I didnt get one. My sensei's plastic bokken saya has like a polyester sageo on his, and he said it came with his. This saya should come with a sageo. It's not worth buying a separate cotton or a silk one for a plastic saya.

Better than no saya |

I ordered this so I can practice Iaido with my bokken. While like everyone says its similar to a toy saya its better than having no saya, of course using a bokken and a sword are somewhat different its an inexpensive way to get that feel. I bought it for my Red Oak bokken and it did no fit so I wound up buying a white oak bokken and that one fits a bit loosely. So take into account your bokken's design before buying.

I highly recommend it, but want to forewarn you of some minor faults. The bokken fits very loosely, rattles, and falls out easily. It will definitely train you to keep a thumb on the tsuba, but allows too much rotation of the bokken while drawing or sheathing. The distance from kurigata (cord knob) to koiguchi (sword opening) is almost twice normal. The nylon sageo (cord) is short, light, and slippery. It works well enough for tying into the obi or himo, but don't try to tie it around the saya. Buy a cotton sageo. Even with these faults I can't imagine a better bokken saya. If you can't yet afford an iaito, at least get this!
