Individual rya-ha wishes, decorated end pieces and finest material choice are standard.

The bokken probably originated from the requirement to make the training fight with real blades less dangerous. Also, sword techniques as well as hanbo techniques can both be performed with the
wooden sword. From its original intention to be used in partner exercises, the bokken developed into an independent weapon with time, which is also considered with individual shapes. Since then,
decorated bokken with hi also have a right to exist and incidentally are beautiful decorative objects.

Optionally with blood channel for enhanced sound.
Advancement from the classic bokken.
Similar to the actual blade construction of a katana – the blank is glued from several thin wood layers.
Because of this process, the characteristics of two different wood types, such as impact strength and flexibility, can be combined. The resulting colour contrast is an additional decorative
element.

If you are searching bokken for special occasions, you will find it here. Based on historical models or based on your wishes, many details of a real katana can be imitated. The tsuba are cross-glued from fine veneer, have a wonderful grain and are very stable. Saya and windings are also possible.

The wooden Naginata ranges among the longest blade weapons, which poses particular challenges to the stability. The wood used should be impact resistant, yet flexible. Therefore, long-fibred
wood, such as hickory or ash, is best suited for this product. The end pieces can be decorated and fitting leather tsuba will be available shortly.
Apart from the Katana, this weapon played an important role in ancient Japan and is still often wielded today – by women.
This weapon was intended for court ladies to defend against intruding enemies. This tradition has survived until today, when handling a naginata became a national sport.
