Great sword, but honestly a bit too light for my tastes. You have to purposely slow your speed down for real practice, otherwise its a flurry of impossible-to-block painless strikes, And then when you switch back to a normal sword or katana the weight overwhelms you. However, me and my friends spar all the time with these and I've only gotten hurt when one them dropped the sword and the handle hit me. I'd prefer more weight and less padding, but its a great sword nonetheless. I still recommend sticking with bokken or shinai and just being careful for more seasoned martial artists, though, because sparring with these throws you off when you try to switch back to the weight of a non-padded sword.

I got 3 of each. The waves are almost useless, I have yet to get a single one to stick, but both the moon and 4-point shurikens have stuck great for me (My actual preferance is moon). They did need a bit of sharpening to stick well, but for the price you can't beat em. Combined with the target board and the carrying pouch they're great for training, especially for beginners.

Great pouch. Held up great, usually holding 6-9 shurikens for me. My only problem with it is the inner part of the button fell off- easily fixed with some tape. Far beyond my expectations, especially for the price, and the belt loop is very convenient.
