Very Nice |

This bokken is very well made and handles very well. The groove will definately help any Kendoka/Kumdoin to improve their swing - you only get a very nice wind whistling sound when you put effort behind an accurate cut. It will especially help any new martial artist to realise if they are being lazy in their strikes.

AWESOME SOUND FX! |

This bokken definately has some kind of sex appeal.
The bokken is not too light, which is good since you are sure that your arms are actually working. The one I purchased however, was a little bit warped to the side T_T
My sensei held the bokken and said that it isn't balanced...
Honestly though, the color of the wood is a nice, light beige, and very smooth. It is a little thick for an average bokken, but the awesome cutting sound makes up for it :)
None of the tsubas I had fit on it though T_T

Not that great for sneak attacks |

It's pretty good at making big noises. So you have to be extra careful when making a sneak attack against someone. But if you want to use it for kendo, you will surely get the judges attension during the promotional exam because of the noise. Not sure if that would be a good thing or not for u. Aside from that, the sides are easilly chipped because of the groves on the side when kata is performed. Like kata number 3, 4, 5, and 6.

A very well balanced bokken that seems to be very light when you use it. The grooves make a pretty and clear sound and help you to make good moves. The finition and tougthness are outstanding for this price and it comes with the exellant customer service from ebogu. A great bokken for a low price.

Product Review |

This particular bokken is a really good practice tool for both Iaido and Kendo. It can be used to do suburi (swinging practice), and Kiritsuke for Iaido. The Hi (groove) embedded in the bokken makes a sound when your cuts are correct, which is one of the things that makes this bokken a great product. Quality finish ensures it will last for a while to come.
