Miyazaki Prefecture Miyakonojo Workshop High-Grade Camellia Wooden Sword Camellia wooden swords, due to their extremely similar grain to "Hon-Biwa" (true loquat), which is considered the best material for wooden swords, were once sold under the name "Biwa." Even veteran craftsmen who make wooden swords find it difficult to distinguish between "Hon-Biwa" and camellia, so it is expected that a considerable number of imitations of Hon-Biwa are also circulating. In a word, camellia wooden swords are simply "beautiful" in terms of grain and color. "Camellia," which has a certain degree of grain and texture to enjoy while also possessing the strength to withstand striking, has a different appeal from red oak (Ichii-gashi). Because it is a high-grade material, the unit price is high. In particular, this wooden sword has "Mokume" (wood grain patterns), making it highly decorative. As a drawback, there are knots in places, which some people dislike. In the past, such items were considered second-class products, but they are now being shipped due to a shortage of materials. Conversely, perfect items like those of the past now cost over 20,000 yen. This wooden sword, while the quality is high for a camellia wooden sword, and the appearance is not perfect, its performance is not extremely inferior, so if you can consider it as a unique characteristic of the wooden sword, it is a great value. It is still in shrink film, so there are no bends or distortions. In recent years, wooden sword workshops have been extremely busy, and the delivery date is usually undetermined even if you place an order at a store. Some stores even stop taking orders because the delivery date is not fixed. ・Length: Approximately 102cm (slight variations possible) ・No bends and excellent balance. ・Covered with shrink film ・With Miyakonojo workshop seal and engraving ・Weight: Approximately 556g (may vary slightly depending on the season and humidity due to the natural material) ・Small knots present ・Mokume (wood grain patterns) present
