    Wow! Shmexy! That brown bogu is also very pretty.

    Does it do anything special except everyone else wanting to kick your fancy ass when you use it?
    Up with this I will not put!

    They look nice but not worth the money IMHO. I can get handmade madake for half the price.

    anyway.. I think 230 it's really too much for a shinai .. my opinion

    I see the shinai. What are the other things? What's a "sado"? It looks like a very pretty baseball bat.

    Not sure I go there

    Pimping the bamboo up with color dyes isn't exactly performance enhancing....

    Aah, but you could get it to match your tsuru and that's all that matters!

    Things can also be valued for the aesthetic quality aside from their performance. They are beautiful. They can make a beautiful arrangement in a sword stand in your office

    Was referring to the Ford vs. Ferrari statement....

    Honestly though, I don't think those shinai are beautiful either...way over done....

    I prefer 'beauty in function' over 'beauty over function'...shinai like that is really only good for display at that price...for that money, I'd get a nice display bokuto over a shinai any day.
