In need of a Wooden Naginata

[KingofMonkeys]

Im in search of a source (in the United States) that supplies wooden naginata at a reasonable price (preferably under 50$ if possible) as long as its durable enough for training and etc I'd be happy, can anyone recommend any sites? Phone Numbers?

Here's some links:
E-bogu (http://www.e-bogu.com/Naginata_Kihon_Yo_for_Basics_with_Tsuba_p/hir-wea-nag-nagikihon--.htm)

Bogu Bag (http://www.bogubag.com/Weapons/Naginata_weapon/naginata_weapon.html)

There's little chance You'll find a naginata under 50$, and if You do, it's probably not of good quality...:disapp:

Well hmm, i can get a boken for like 7 bucks, a very good bokken, but a naginata 85 bucks? -_- wth?

You can't get a good bokken for $7. And naginata stuff is not high demand, therefore made in Japan, therefore shipping kills you because of the length.

You may want to look at Kim Taylor's work @ http://sdksupplies.netfirms.com/

Nice craftmanship.

Hmmm... try taping two of those $7.00 bokken together, no, on second thought use superglue.

I've also been using e-bogu for a few years now and have nothing but praise for them. They have good products and excellent, excellent customer service.

Shipping on bogubag is way up there.... you'll pay around $200 in total.

Try www.tozando.com (http://www.tozando.com) they have naginata for around 9000 yen and shipping to USA is around 6000. Thats a bit over 110 euro so about 140-150 U$D?
