IM looking into purchasing a pair of Sais, and they come in many different lengths, and also in either octogonal or round.

 

So how do i decide what length to get, and what do you think is better, round or octogonal???

 

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!! :)

Basically which ever you prefer.

 

"traditional" folk will say the sai should extend slightly past your elbow when held in a closed position.

 

But depending on what you want to do with them, it is just a matter of preference.

 

I prefer round as they don't eat through other weapons as fast.

At times your Sai can get caught up in your uniform and such. Sometimes a shorter lenght is best depending on the type of movements in your weapon kata.

octogonal and round are just how they look, so what ever you prefer. the size should be just below your elbo, but just a little bit. also, if you were thinking about color between black and chrome, i would go with chrome--they look better moving in the light ;)
