I am looking for a good naginata for kumitachi nad kirikaish (sp?) We do lots of wood on wood contact and sparring so density and impact resistance are paramount. Something along the lines of a 6' shaft and between a 12-18" blade. Trying to stay $100 or under. I'm pretty sure hickory would be my first choice, unless someone knows of something stronger.
Any suggestions as where I could get one or have it made would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for any and all replies.. ;-)~
