Bokken Katana “Kogane Tonbo”

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

The high-quality craftsmanship and the authentically detailed appearance, including a real tsuba, dragonfly handle decoration, and the beautiful real wood saya, make this bokken training katana a true standout among training swords.
