Sphinx Posted November 13, 2005 Posted November 13, 2005 I am going to buy a pair of shureido Sai. Which is better? Stainless Steel or Chrome? Is one stronger than the other?Thanx.... Buy low, sell high, take your pills, tell your lies, fake your tan, wear a tie, go to the gym, you'll never die !!!
kurome Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 stainless steel is better i guess. the only difference i can tell is that the stainless doesnt chip because it isn't just plated. "You all come from different instructors, so as I look around the room I may see many different ways of preforming this kata, however, if you are turning left and I turn right, we have a problem." -Renshi Thomas Apsokardu (Godan, Okinawa Kenpo Karate Kobudo Koryu Kan)Matthew Sullivan
Shorinryu Sensei Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 Stainless is stronger also. I have regular chorme plated sai's and have brokent a couple. I used to have a stainless pair until somebody broke into my dojo and stole my entirre weapon collection. Doubtful if stainless would break. Bend maybe though if put under enough stress...like running over them in yoru car. My nightly prayer..."Please, just let me win that PowerBall Jackpot just once. I'll prove to you that it won't change me!"
