Bokken #3- Wakizashi

Here's the third bokken I've made, a wakizashi. Generally, this isn't used much in kenjutsu or kendo. Its only used in two sword techniques, which are not usually practiced frequently. 

Bokken #2, Suburito

This is the second bokken I made, a suburito. Suburito are practice swords not meant for sparring, or for contact, but are overweighted to train the arm muscles and to force the user to focus on the technical aspects of his swing.

Bokken #1

This is the first bokken I made. It turned out pretty much perfect. I couldn't really ask for a better practice sword.

I use the lamination method for my swords as opposed to cutting their shape with a bandsaw.
