This shinai is a Nishinihon Budogu "Josui" size 39. The bamboo material is Bungo bamboo, which is rare even among Josui products, and is difficult to find at either store. The grip thickness has been personally shaved down a bit, and is approximately 24.5-25mm. Condition: Used for 2-3 practices (about 2 hours total). There are no visible cracks, and the surface has been cleaned up with sandpaper. * The grip, tip leather, nakayui (middle tie), and tsuru (string) are attached, but the images may show a lot of indigo dye. These were originally attached to another shinai, so if you don't need them, please let me know when you purchase and I will remove them before shipping. For those who want to try Josui, the new retail price is 18,500 yen, which is expensive. Why not try this shinai and consider buying a new one? * Please note that I will not be offering any discounts. Thank you for your understanding. I look forward to your purchase.
