Bokken

A bokken is a wooden sword used in martial arts training, especially in Japanese disciplines like kendo, aikido, and kenjutsu. It simulates a real katana but is made from polished hardwood, allowing practitioners to practice techniques safely and realistically. Bokkens help develop proper stance, grip, and movement without the risks associated with live blades. They are typically crafted with precise shape and weight to mimic a real sword's handling, making them essential training tools for mastering weapon-based martial arts.
