Anyone familiar with the the bokken that are being offered on www.budovideos.com.
They are listed as being handmade by Kaizen.
thanks

Had a chance to check on the "Kaizen" batch that just came in to Budovideos.
Made in Macendonia, of sturdy white oak, very nice lines, and a wide range of styles (musashi's niten ryu, jikishinkage ryu, etc.) Includes bokken, jo, tanto, suburi (very heavy and solid), etc.
I liked the look and heft. Will buy one (or two or three) as my birthday comes up. Nice lines that others I have seen don't have.
Give Jake a call and he'll give you more info, maybe he's going to post photos on his website, www.budovideos.com so you can get a better look.
