Wooden Weapon, grown and crafted in Hokkaido, Japan.

The Akan region of Hokkaido is blessed with natural beauty and is a popular tourist destination. The wood used to produce these wooden weapons is planted, cultivated, and processed completely in Hokkaido, Japan.

The wood, having withstood the wind and snow in the harsh Akan environment is perfectly suited for Bokuto in terms of hardness, weight, and durability.

We hope that these Bokuto can be used by many people while also helping maintain this industry in Hokkaido and promote the spread and development of Kendo.

The best material for wooden swords: Japanese Oak

Hokkaido oak, which grows strongly and withstands the wind and snow of the cold northern lands, can reach heights of up to 35 meters and some trees are more than 1,000 years old. The oak and its characteristics have been thoroughly examined, and the wooden swords are carefully finished one by one by skilled craftsmen in the company's specialist woodworking workshop.
