I've just got this today and I'm already falling in love with it. I plan to use this during practice from now on. Permalink

Took forever to get to this point...I've had mine for over 5 years and not a single problem. Sparred with them, and not a single problem other than the striking damage. Finally mine broke, after 5 years of abuse and training. Was really surprised when it broke...broke in half starting from about 2/3 of the way up to about 10 inches above the handle of the weapon. Further inspection shows that fatigue lead to the failure of the weapon...heck after five years its about time. All in all amazing weapon for practice and training,slightly heavy. Permalink

don't forget that this was used by quite possibly the most famous warrior of all time Niten Doraku also known by Miyamoto Musashi to win the most famous duel in Japan. It IS used to train but when used a weapon for counters and angles it can be extremely effective. Its weight and shape are made for breaking down defenses and breaking bones not for classic attacks or parries. Permalink

I really don't understand why people don't do a little more research before using something like this. Suburito means you practice by yourself, and is NOT made for contact with other bokken. Do so at your own personal risk.
That aside, I'm really satisfied with the weight of it, being just shy of three pounds. The picture provided really doesn't do it justice, it's bigger than it looks. Although there were already a couple chips throughout and doesn't seem to be cut evenly, the point is the weight. When used properly, the suburito can greatly improve your speed with regular shinai and bokken. A great value based on its usefulness! Permalink

The weight is really nice for strength training. The heft of the blade is very impressive, and I expected it to do me well in combat against my friends. HOWEVER, I was VERY disappointed in how it held up. My friend has just a standard, no-frills bokken, and it's ripping this suburito apart. In one spot it was dinged up so bad I had to wrap it with athletic tape just so I wouldn't get a splinter every time I touched the blade. I was wrong in assuming that a larger heavier blade would be effective. Bottom line: good for conditioning but NOT for sparring. Permalink

A great price for it, but I would have liked it to be heavier. Permalink

This product is very durable. I came down with a vertical strike against my friend. He was using a bamboo bokken. This thing snapped his fair quality bokken in half and fractured my friends wrist. If u get it be careful Permalink

Excellent product, basically a bigger bokken designed to strengthen and condition the user. Very durable. Only reason it got a 4 was because it came all chipped in the box... a big piece of the tip was missing. But otherwise a very good product. Permalink

Well balanced, good weight. An excellent practice weapon. My only complaint is the tip is not pointed as are most Suburito's available from other sources, but this does not detract from the usefulness of the weapon for training purposes. Permalink

worth the money

This is a larger version of a bokken, its a lot heavier which is good for individual practice, and its awesome practicing with it then a normal bokken, you feel like you've had a good workout after using this, a good buy. Permalink

Great Trainer

Basically, a larger version of a bokken, the suburito I have ordered is purposefully made to be overly large and cumbersome to increase one's strength and precision through aversion. Personally, I find this a very nice product, much stronger and more effective in training than a normal bokken. It is a bokken for more advanced students. Permalink
