Description

Shinai Bamboo Sword

The shinai bamboo sword is a flexible sword used in full contact training. The word shinai derives from the verb Shinau meaning to flex or to bend. Compared with the bokken that is a rigid wooden replica of a sword the shinai is very flexible.

The shinai is 45″ ( 114cm) long and constructed in a tubular form of four slats of bamboo. The slats are then held by a Tsuba (guard), a bound handle, a middle strap and bound by a retaining strap and the Sakigawa (a small cup at the tip of teh shinai).
The handle and the Sakigawa are joined by a Himo (string) that represents the black of the blade.
