Hard to obtain! 【Miyazaki Prefecture Miyakonojo Workshop Highest Quality Genuine Red Oak Wooden Sword (Bokuto)】 Compared to the relatively light and flexible Japanese Prunus wood, genuine red oak is considered the best material for practical wooden swords, balancing weight, strength, and flexibility. Currently sold red oak wooden swords are often made from a substitute called "Ichii Oak." To distinguish it, genuine red oak is referred to as "Genuine Red Oak." Genuine red oak logs are extremely rare and rarely available in the market, making it very difficult to obtain genuine red oak wooden swords. Due to the lack of logs, it will become increasingly difficult to obtain them in the future, making them extremely rare.
