I bought this bokken for my daughter to do entry level practice. I was very pleased with the level of craftsmanship of the sword and its scabbard. I have had many compliments on this bokken and have been pleased with its weight, balance and the realism that comes from having the extras on this bokken above the usual smooth wood of other practice models. Very positive in every aspect.

Well made, shipped in a protective tube that did its job perfectly. Good weight and great balance. Makes a statement when used in front of judges and audiences. I am well pleased with this product.

This Gi is well made, but cut very large for the size I ordered. Also, the pants have a weird string tie arrangement instead of elastic and a cord. This makes it very bulky around the waist. I give 5 stars for workmanship and material, 3 stars for fit and waistband.

This is a very good guard while being priced in the ''easily replaceable'' category. My daughter is a mouthguard 'chewer' and this offers superior protection with a price that makes it easy to buy several at a time for replacement. At least for her, they are soft enough to be worn down by her teeth clenching during sparring. They still have my highest award. The 4 stars is for a little lack of durability, but that is to be expected. It is harder to find a better mouthguard and I have tried LOTS of THEM!
