Expensive shinais have wonderful balance, but the video doesn't show any stage checking for the center of weight. So then how do they get the balance right???
I must say I am a little disappointed in the use of so many power tools.I have seen a video of an old school maker using nothing but a blade embedded in a bench and holding the bamboo in his hands.
He splits,shapes and sands using the one blade in less than 6 mins
I find this sort of craftsmanship amazing. The Japanese put so much pride into their work and the consumer is rewarded highly for using the products of their work. Some sword smiths take years just to make one blade, it may not be efficient, but its probably a damn nice blade. I'd prefer a hand crafted shinai/katana to a mas produced one any day. Though this sort of artisan craftsmanship isn't purely Japanese, they make a great example.
No manches, toma un monton de tiempo la elaboracion de un shinai hecho a mano, ya me imagino el precio de un shinai de estos, pero de cualquier forma el ver este video hace que uno le tenga mas amor a su equipo
that's right, cause this is a handmade shinai. meanwhile, machine mass produced (machine) shinai delays less than 10 minutes to be ready for practice.
Attention Please!
S.Korea is copying and stealing Japanese culture, and now trying to make it as an accomplished fact.
Please help Japan.

I would guess that Japanese ones are hand made, whereas Taiwanese ones are mass produced! Though I might be wrong. Great video though

Great video too.

@BlackSabbathMark He uses electrical tools. Robots could manufacture this, if as effective would you not buy it, I think we all know you would.
