Where can i buy a White oak bokken?

Question

Where can i get a white oak bokken Ive been looking all over the net i have even bookmark a few websites tho i am worried that i will end up buying a crappy poorly made bokken i need something strong enough to break humans bones and tough enough to stand toe to toe with a metal baseball bat Im merely looking for something to defend myself and practice with swordsmen ship without killing anyone

Answer 1

Need... break... bones... baseball bat... self defense?

Look, if it can break bones, you can kill someone with it. If you use it in a self-defense situation against an unarmed person, you're subject to the same laws as someone using a baseball bat or a walking cane.

Go take aikido and when it comes time to learn how to use it properly, ask your instructor where to find a good white oak bokken.

Then watch as it gets broken against a purpleheart or osage orange bokken. Be good. Know your wood ;)

Answer 2

why dont you just buy an un sharpend sword?

try going to a martial arts store and just buy a boken from there they will know what is good. and if you buy it online from a martial arts store its probs decent aswell.
