Munetoshi Junior Edition Aluminum Iaito Practice Samurai Sword Unsharpened Edge

Description

If one wishes to pursue study of Japanese sword arts, one must first acquire a
good beginner’s sword. In iaido specifically, beginners all start with iaito,
or unsharpened swords. This allows practitioners to practice with what is, for
all intents and purposes, a real sword, and helps get them used to weight,
balance, safety and maintenance procedures without the danger element a
sharpened blade brings. It is always best to start with a light iaito and work
up to heavier swords as muscle tone and skill level increase. This is our
Junior Edition Aluminum Iaito. The iaito is perfect for youths and smaller
practitioners. It is very light and fast, aiding in proper technique
application. It features a prominent bohi which offers an audible whistle when
edge alignment is correct. It’s also aesthetically pleasing with a lovely
etched hamon, sukashi tsuba, real ray skin and cotton ito. This sword comes
with a FREE black sword bag. [Dimensions] Overall Length:33.5 ” Nagasa Length:
