Great Sai, I have purchased several of these and the Chrome Sai as well, both for personal use and for other people in my program. No real downsides once you can get over the weight. 4 and 1/2 stars ****-

I like my sai case that I purchased but it could use an update. The sai case is not wide enough, this means that when your sais are inside the case, it starts to deform a little bit. Also, the case could be a bit larger all around, my 21 inch sais are right at the ends of the case. Over all, very good quality for the cost. Very durable. Looks nice.
