Perfectly suited to Kendo Kata and general Kodachi practice, this all-purpose Hickory Shoto (wooden short sword) comes complete with a Tsuba and Dome (Colours may vary). With a total length of 56cm, our standard Kodachi is a superior player in the performance stakes. Hickory is a dense hardwood with a clean, natural finish, perfect for wooden weapons made for contact practice. Famous in the use of handles for heavy impact tools, hickory is hard, dense and absorbs shock efficiently. Furthermore, when hickory is bruised, the impacts actually condense the material fibres, strengthening the wood rather than weakening it. With every impact your wooden weapon will become stronger!
