  • 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.

  • Nothing like this can be produced by Machine

  • Attention Please!

    S.Korea is copying and stealing Japanese culture, and now trying to make it as an accomplished fact.

    Please help Japan.

  • 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???

  • The shinai maker is awesome. I would like to meet him someday.

  • oooo genial are el mio para ta kwon do hahahaha

  • 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

  • now I wanna make my own shinai... but it'd prolly be super hard, haha

  • @gs032009 I see you have quite a valid point there

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

  • @beardly01---Is now a bad time to point out that this guy is actually a korean shinai craftsman? lol.

  • this is great vid but 1:45 to 1:50 looks wrong haha
