description

Martial use

 

This type of bokken is traditionally used in Jiki Shinkage Ryu Naginata practice and has also been adopted by some Aikido practitioners for its distinctive qualities.

Its very thin profile and low curvature allow for direct, linear cuts, encouraging precision, control and accuracy in both solo and paired practice.

Because of its light weight and reduced inertia, this bokken requires greater control of the movement, making it particularly relevant for practitioners who wish to refine their technique and develop a more subtle and precise handling.

Manufacturer's note

 

This set is built around a bokken inspired by the Jiki Shinkage Ryu Naginata tradition, a model appreciated for its unique handling characteristics and refined profile.

The bokken is distinguished by its very thin construction, light weight and extremely low curvature, allowing for a highly direct and linear expression of the cut. This geometry facilitates precise trajectories and encourages a clear understanding of distance and alignment.

Unlike heavier bokken, the reduced inertia makes the weapon more sensitive to variations in movement. As a result, the practitioner must develop a higher level of control and precision to maintain stability and accuracy during execution.

This model has been appreciated by certain Aikido teachers for its ability to highlight technical precision and refine the quality of movement, particularly in the study of cutting lines and timing.

It should be understood as a complementary training tool, offering different sensations from a standard bokken, rather than a direct replacement.

It is important to distinguish this model from the much thicker and heavier Jiki Shinkage Hojo bokken, which is designed for impact training and suburi.

The jo and tanto complete the set with standard dimensions, ensuring consistency in practice while preserving the specific dynamic introduced by the bokken.

As with all Manmori products, each weapon is crafted from carefully selected European ash wood, offering a balance of strength, flexibility, durability and lightness.

Every piece is handcrafted in our workshop in the Périgord region of France, using traditional hand tools to achieve a refined finish and a natural, well-balanced feel.

This set is particularly suited to practitioners seeking a precise, direct and technically demanding approach to Aikido weapons practice.

Would you like these weapons to be engraved?

 

Engravings on bokken and jo are made by hand using traditional wood burning (pyrography). We can transcribe your first and last name into Japanese katakana.

You may also choose to have kanji (Japanese characters) engraved.

The inscriptions are made vertically:

– On bokken, the engraving follows the direction from the tip toward the handle and is usually placed on the blade just above the guard.

– On jo, the engraving is placed at the center of the staff.

Once you have made your choice in the dropdown menu, please enter the text to be engraved in the “Engraving text” field.
