Dents in Shinai

[HawaiianKendoka]

One of my shinai has dents all over the monouchi. Does anyone know how to fix or get rid of these dents. I have only used the shinai for three practices.

A dent on your monouchi? that's happens all the time, just sand it down a little with sand paper if it gets to much, but slight dents shouldn't be a problem.

The dents mean you are hitting the mengane a lot - you need to work on hitting more on top of the men.
