Short Grip Shinai.
Assembled with standard fittings and Gin-fu Tsukagawa, Rei is a Tsuka-tan (short grip with lowered gravity center) Shinai for powerful strikes. Great as a Suburi-Shinai for solo-trainning due to the required movement of the wrists and coordination needed for doing larger swings, and as a normal-practice Shinai for those who prefer the "heavy-weight" sensation granted by the shorter Tsuka, which allows big Shinai-motion without the need of lifting the arms (because the pivot-point has been lowered on the bamboo itself, plus the shorter Tsukagawa, you can make larger swings just with your wrists) and strikes that land with more power, similar to a Koto Shinai type.
* 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.
* Assembled Shinai; Leather fittings/parts included.
