A word from the craftsman
” This Takemusu Aikido bokken is made of European beech wood sourced from sustainably managed forests. This wood has a high impact strenght resistence, and a light weight.
As any other wooden weapons of Manmori this bokken is manufactured at our workshop in the Perigord France, using traditional techniques.
The Takemusu bokken is widely used by the practitioners of the Iwama Aïkido style. It has a thick blade with a ligth curve that ends with a flat tip , and a thick handle ( tsuka) slightly longer than the traditional bokken . The transition between the handle and the blade is very progressive allowing you to adjust your grip according to your feeling. This heavy and thick bokken can be used for suburi pratice as well “.
Available finish: finished with an environmentally friendly varnish

Customization
⇒ Engrave this bokken
Japanese inscriptions on Bokken, Jo and Tanto are completely handmade with pirography. Inscriptions are oriented vertically.
On Bokken, Shoto and Tanto, they are made on the blade just before the handle (tsuka) and oriented from the tip of the blade to the end of the handle. On Jo and Hambo they are made at the center.
We can engrave your name and/or firstname in katakana, or some martial or spiritual concept in kanji.
Select your option and write your inscription in the field “inscription to engrave”.
⇒ Add a wooden tsuba
The Manmori wooden guard (tsuba) is made out of european beech.
Since our wooden tsuba is made to order it is only available to accompany Manmori bokken but is not sold separately.
This tsuba sits between two rubber grip rings , supplied with the tsuba.
