Bokken Katana “Aoi Oni”

The traditional bokken katana “Aoi Oni” looks like a real katana but features a robust blade made from durable Bahia rosewood. Thanks to its wooden blade, this beautiful bokutō is excellently suited for training in Japanese martial arts. The saya (scabbard) is made from hardwood and is painted black. The handle is traditionally covered with simulated ray skin and tightly wrapped with polyester silk. This bokken wood katana is suitable for both Kendo and Iaido training.

Its high-quality craftsmanship and the authentically detailed look with a real tsuba and brass handle decorations make this bokken training katana a true highlight among training swords.

„Never envy others, neither for their happiness nor because of your own misfortune.“
