Excellent Shinai |

This shinai has become my my personal favorite shinai. It has the speed of a dobari shinai with the stable balance of many of the chokuto shinai here on ebogu.

I got my shinai about 7 weeks ago. I loved the feel of it. It actually made kote and men strikes easier. If you do an exercise like "kiri-kaeshi" you'll find it a bit heavier. But if your style is pretty defensive and straight - go for this shinai. But remember to grind and oil it up, because before you know it, it will crack or show splinters. I didn't. Mine's just cracked. I mourn.

Excellent shinai |

I got this shinai a couple of days ago, and I had not had the chance to try it out at regular keiko, but I tryed to practice hitting a tsuka at home, and I did not notice that it was any harder to control than my last dobari shinai. I should point out that I am but a beginner, and I believe if I do not have a problem with control, no one with more skill than I should too. I also asked for an opinion a couple of my senior mates to try it out, and they did not find any problems in control. P.s. the tsuka is a bit wider than a regular shinai, and the 8cm tsuba does not fit on it, but the 9cm tsubas fit perfectly.

Excellent craftsmanship, quality service, and great value for money. This shinai has a superb feel and balance and is beautifully constructed. E-Bogu are a pleasure to do business with and are really fast and efficient at shipping orders promptly. I will do business with them again.
I like this shinai so much I bought a second one so i can use them alternately. These Madake shinai even smell great.
