mauger Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Hi EveryoneI know there is a lot of talk out there about "the best Bokken". i have recently purchased a 45 inch Bokken from kingfisher woodworks and i love it. I was just wondering what Bokken other people prefer? "Given enough time, any man may master the physical. With enough knowledge, any man may become wise. It is the true warrior who can master both....and surpass the result." - Tien T'ai
Spodo Komodo Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 I get mine from Nine Circles in the UK, never had a bad one yet. They do bamboo ones for eco-warriors as well. Real solid bokken made from laminated bamboo.
Shang_Jone_Ja Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 If you are going to be doing any sparring with it, you want it made out of a hardwood, such as Maple or Oak. If you can practice with a longer Bokken than what you are supposed to be using, it will also strengthen your arms a bit more. Weapons that I love to train with: Katana, Nunchuks, English Long Sword, French Rapier, Throwing knives, Arming Sword, Bo Staff, and English Broad Sword, and Guns.Pain is the best instructor, but nobody likes to go to his class
