Bokken NIDOME

Yagyu Shinkage Ryu Bokken

Yagyu Shinkage Ryu wooden katana has a straight shaped blade, it is relatively light.   

With such a straight blade, you can control the distance (Maai) with your partner with ease. The flat kissaki gives you security during your training. The Yagyu school's philosophy is to win not by physical force hurting someone but by the energy (ki) without fighting ; that is why the kissaki is flat. This is not a simply physical training but mental training.

Its material is made from a Japanese 70 years old oak tree in the southern part of Japan and manufactured by a craft company which has the National Qualification of traditional Crafts in Miyakonojo (Kyushu in Japan).

-The  point of sword (Kissaki) is flat, not pointed.
-The blade (ha, hasuji) is straight bokken.

These bokken are manufactured by  NIIDOME Bokuto, located in Miyakonojo, Kyushu (southern Japan).

NIDOME perpetuates a traditional way of manufacturing, among other things when letting the wood dry naturally so as not to damage the fibers.

This is why our bokken are solid and can be used for a long time.
