"DOBARI" Style Shinai

The dobari style shinai as compared to the regular shinai is designed thicker at the base. As a result, the center of gravity is shifted to the base of the shinai, towards the handle, making it feel lighter when you swing. Also, due to the weight being centered in the handles, the dobari shinai gives the kendoka the ability to execute wrap around and kaeshi wazas at ease.

Green "KEICHIKU" Bamboo

Majority of shinai's out there are made of Keichiku bamboo. Keichiku bamboo is roughly 7-8cm in diameter and are harvested all year round in Taiwan. The high density fibers is said to contribute to the long life of the shinai. However, during import, or the storage they go through some dry conditions which may remove some of the natural oil and or moisture from the shinai resulting it easy to develop slivers on the shinai upon use. All our shinai has given special oil treatment in factory before shipment that can extend the life of shinai and increase the durability and resistance from being destroy by dehydration.
