The bokken with sheath (saya) is used for training and rituals in iaido and ken-jutsu as well as mastering techniques in aikido. An ideal gift for any connoisseur of oriental martial arts. Bokken is treated with a special oil that protects it from moisture and dirt. Patterned rubber combined tsuba and dome perfect for use with a plastic saya, the lip of the tsuba acts like a habaki on a real sword, providing a grip interaction between bokken and scabbard.
The blade of the sword has faces and a standard deflection. The tip of the sword is made in the classical form.
