These bokken are made from Japanese oak from Kyushu (the southern part of Japan ) by NIDOME Bokuto Craft Company at Miyakonojo, in Kyushu. This company represented more than 80% of the bokken manufacturing market in Japan. Miyakonojo keeps the traditional way of manufacturing, such as  drying the wood naturally in order not to destroy the fibers of oak; therefore our bokken are solid and robust and can be used for a long time. NIDOME Company uses the wood taken from 70 years old trees.

The price of medlar and camellia wood are the same, the quality is also the same.

**Because loquat wood has few thick sections, it is currently impossible to find suitable wood for making bokken on the market.

NIDOME kindly provided us with loquat wood from their stock.
