All items are manufactured by a skilled carpenter using Kaliamaruthu / Marutham (Terminalia elliptica) wood, which is a dense, durable hardwood native to India. Hence, all items will have the typical colour of the material: rich, deep brown with dark streaks and fine, striking grain patterns (irrespective of the representative photographs below). By default the items will be varnished.
Available gear on sale include:
Jo: wooden staff
Bokken: wooden Japanese sword / katana
Wakizashi: wooden short-sword
Tanto: wooden knife
Expect minor variability in dimensions since each item is crafted by hand.
