Aoi's standards are high
Don't let the word 'standard' fool you! We at Aoi work with high standards so even the 'standard' models are finished to perfection using only genuine materials and traditional finishing. Along with the traditional dragon fuchi/kashira pattern, other features of this Iaito include genuine ray-skin (samegawa), and 100% cotton tsuka-maki. A choice between ishime or kuroro saya is available. Ishime saya has a textured mat black appearance and kuroro saya has glossy black finish with a natural lacquer. For tsuba, tsuru sukashi or kiku sukashi tsuba are available with the standard jidai Iaito. The tsuru sukashi is a crane with extended wings while the kiku sukashi is a chrysanthemum design and for both, sukashi refers to the cut out open work of the tsuba. With such features, there's no doubt that the Standard Jidai Iaito is a Beginner's #1 choice!!
