Classic Carbon Graphite Shinai - Hasegawa

Description

The
bamboo sword Shinai
was
invented as early as the mid-17th century
and should represent an
alternative to the Bokken
. However, it quickly developed into an
autonomous weapon
and is now used especially in
Kendo as a sports and competition weapon
. It consists of
4 bamboos
, which are
held together at the bottom by a handle cover and at the top of the tip with a cap
. A
band marks the hit area
, which is about
25 cm lower when viewed from the top
. The
nylon cord
is the Shinai bamboo sword
to mark the non-blade side
- the side that is dull in a real sword.
