Description

*SECOND RATE: Unused Shinai, in perfect condition but with more-than-usual imperfections and marks on the bamboo, thus the discounted price. Normally, when the growing bamboo hit each other by the wind they generate marks, and it is known that these "injuries" on the growing bamboo actually makes it more sturdy and durable, however, customers often seek the ones with cleaner appearance which is why these end up on the Outlet section.

Fun Budogu fact: Some japanese Sensei deliberately look out for Shinai with marks because they heard about the durability and also due to their unique raw appearance. 

Brand-less Standard Shinai for normal practices.
Basic assembled Shinai for any level, without brand to keep the cost at the lowest possible.
Great for beginners or as a spare Shinai for Keiko. It's just a standard quality affordable Shinai, approved with the corresponding SSP Seal for its use at official events.

* SSP Approval: This Shinai follows the actual All Japan Kendo Federation designated regulations.

* The size of Tsuba/Tsubadome set is designated by the Shinai size when the option for adding them is selected. If you want to buy a specific size of Tsuba/Tsubadome set, you need to purchase them as a separate item.

Warranty
We make a quality check after the products are finished at the workshop and before preparing the shipment, but in case that something was overlooked or one of the products from another maker has some kind of malfunction, and if you find any trouble with your purchase after receiving it, contact us immediately to help you out. If you think there is a problem after using all the purchased items for a while, you can also write to us, and we will analyze your case to check if we could offer you a solution in the way of repair, exchange, refund or a compensation in case it corresponds depending of the problem. But please be aware that not only all the protective gear that is used wrongly or in extreme situations will be damaged. Due to the normal use (sweat, friction, hits) and to the weather (direct sunlight, dryness, humidity) impacts over time, it is assumed that the condition of the product will decrease. Before contacting us, take the aforementioned into consideration, and if we found out the cause or reason of the problem is not due to a defective product or manufacture error, there will be no replacement, repair, refund or compensation whatsoever. * In case of bamboo and wood products (Shinai, Bokuto, Suburito), designated weight and their surface's condition might change during the shipping due to moisture/humidity changes that may occur while handled or stored by the couriers and while traveling to your place for delivery. Natural raw materials, specially bamboo, might present imperfections such as color change, dark spots and other visible details that are perfectly normal; these do not represent any problem in terms of durability. Also, many of our Shinai have a layer of wax or oil finishing, thus residues may be found on the bamboo. For this reason, we suggest to clean these kind of products with a cloth before using them the first time. And in case of small deterioration on the surface due to dryness, we recommend to put (only on the bamboo or wood areas) a layer of vegetable-oil after polishing with sandpaper, if necessary.
